EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness a masterpiece by a follower of Titian. The painting, titled "Venus Blindfolding Cupid" was created between 1560 and 1570 and is executed with exquisite detail on canvas using oil paints. The scene depicts the mythical goddess Venus playfully blindfolding her mischievous son Cupid. With delicate brushstrokes, the artist captures every nuance of their interaction. Venus stands tall and graceful, her flowing robes cascading around her as she gently covers Cupid's eyes with a silk bandage. Her expression reveals both tenderness and amusement at her son's antics. Cupid, portrayed as an innocent cherub with rosy cheeks and golden curls, seems caught off guard by his mother's playful gesture. His tiny wings flutter in surprise while he clutches his bow tightly in one hand. The artist skillfully portrays the vulnerability of youth through Cupid's wide-eyed innocence. The composition is bathed in warm hues that evoke a sense of timeless beauty. The soft lighting enhances the ethereal atmosphere surrounding these iconic figures from classical mythology. This print allows us to appreciate not only the talent of this anonymous follower but also offers us a glimpse into Titian's influence on other artists during this period. It serves as a testament to the enduring allure of mythological themes throughout art history.
