About the piece

Painted around 1625, this work by Alessandro Turchi (known as Orbetto) illustrates the classic theme of 'Omnia Vincit Amor' (Love Conquers All). The composition features Venus and Cupid interacting with a variety of figures, demonstrating love's influence across diverse paths of life. Turchi’s signature style is evident in the refined anatomy and the dramatic chiaroscuro, characteristic of the 17th-century Veronese school.
