This low-relief “Cupid Chained up by the Nymphs” depicts a mythological scene centered on Love — or Cupid — represented as a winged adolescent, gently restrained by delicate bonds woven around him by several nymphs.
Emerging from forest clearings and shaded groves, these natural and graceful figures lean toward the young god. Their expressions combine tenderness and determination as they create a network of ties that is simultaneously intricate and refined.
Though seemingly light, these bonds carry strong symbolic weight, reflecting the dual nature of love: enchanting and tender, yet capable of holding and binding those it touches.
