Oil on canvas. The mythological subject portraying together the two deities symbolizing profane Love has been widely illustrated in art.As in this work, Venus is usually depicted in a languid attitude, while exhibiting her naked Beauty.Cupid, in the guise of a winged putto, is intent on drawing from his quiver one of his love-inducing darts, one of which is already stuck in the torso behind the goddess. In the background is an Italian landscape, with a small architectural structure.The outline of the painting hints at an original shaped frame.Restored and re-framed, the painting is currently presented in a styled frame. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution
