Venus, her jealousy inflamed by Psyche's beauty,
sent Cupid to make Psyche fall in love with the most despicable
man she might happen to meet. But Cupid himself fell in love with
Psyche and brought her to his palace, where he made love to her
every night. The painting shows Cupid leaving at dawn so that the
sleeping Psyche could never know his identity. This picture was
painted while the artist was in exile in Brussels. The work's eroticism
is a departure from David's earlier sober and moralizing pictures. |
