EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the enchanting masterpiece, "Le culte de Cupidon - The Worship of Cupid" painted by Alexander Roslin in 1787. This oil on canvas artwork, measuring 60x65 cm, is housed in the National Museum in Stockholm, Sweden. In this scene, Roslin transports us to a world where love and devotion take center stage. A cherubic figure stands amidst a lush garden adorned with vibrant flowers. With delicate wings and a mischievous smile, Cupid himself presides over this sacred space. A woman kneels before the deity, her hands clasped together in prayerful reverence. She embodies unwavering faith as she gazes up at the god of love and desire. Surrounding them are intricate sculptures and an ornate temple that further emphasize the divine nature of their worship. Roslin's brushstrokes bring life to every detail: from the softness of Cupid's rosy cheeks to the intricate folds of fabric draping around his ethereal form. The artist masterfully captures both human emotion and mythological symbolism within this single composition. This painting not only showcases Roslin's technical prowess but also explores themes such as belief systems, paganism, and religious devotion prevalent during the 18th century. It serves as a testament to art's ability to transcend time and culture while evoking profound emotions within its viewers. Through this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we can now admire Roslin
