About the piece
Painted in 1637 by Anthony van Dyck, this masterful portrait depicts Lady Mary Villiers as Venus, accompanied by Charles Hamilton, Lord Arran, as Cupid. The work showcases the artist's legendary skill in rendering textiles, particularly the luminous white satin gown that dominates the composition against a moody, architectural background.
