About the piece

Created in 1807 by Swedish painter Fredric Westin, this neoclassical oil painting captures the god of love in mid-flight. Cupid is rendered with soft, luminous skin and wide, feathered wings, carrying his signature bow through an atmospheric sky. The composition's airy palette and graceful movement exemplify the romantic idealism of the period.
