Worship of Cupid

400,00 €

The Adoration of Cupid depicts an intimate scene in which a young mother presents her child to the statue of the god of Love, identifiable by his bow, arrows, and wings.

The meticulous rendering of the patrician’s drapery, as well as the leaves of the tree in the background, demonstrates the precision achieved through the calcite crystals.

Shaped under the waters of the Petrifying Fountains, this limestone low-relief is the result of an encrustation on mould technique. The piece showcases the delicacy of textures, the fluidity of the fabrics, the subtle curls that bring the scene to life, and the baroque frame that enhances the overall composition.
