EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture "Venus and Cupid" created by Georg Petel in 1624. The ivory masterpiece, now housed at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, UK, beautifully captures a moment of mythological love and tenderness. In this Baroque artwork, Venus, the goddess of love and beauty, stands gracefully with her head slightly tilted downwards. Her shy demeanor adds an air of vulnerability to her divine presence. With one hand delicately placed on her chest in a gesture of modesty (pudica), she holds hands with Cupid, the mischievous god of desire. Cupid's playful expression contrasts with Venus' reserved nature as he gazes affectionately at his mother. This mythological duo embodies the eternal theme of love that transcends time and space. The sculpture's contrapposto pose enhances its lifelike quality; Venus' body weight subtly shifts onto one leg while maintaining a graceful balance. Their nudity symbolizes purity and innocence within classical mythology. Petel's meticulous craftsmanship is evident in every intricate detail carved into the ivory medium. Each curve and contour brings these mythical figures to life, evoking emotions that resonate deeply within viewers. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported into a world where ancient myths intertwine with timeless human experiences - reminding us that love has always been an integral part of our existence.
