These studies relate to the hands of the Graiae in Perseus and the Graiae, which is the second composition in the 'Perseus Series'. This exists in three versions: the preparatory gouache in Southampton Art Gallery; the sculpted version against a wooden background and with gilded lettering, now in the National Museum of Wales; and the oil version in the Stuttgart Staatsgalerie. All were worked on over the period 1875-92
