This oil on canvas print, measuring an impressive 217x350 cm, showcases Rubens' exceptional talent and his deep understanding of mythology.

Surrounding her are playful putti with their delicate wings fluttering amidst lush foliage. These winged cherubs add an element of enchantment to the scene as they engage in joyful revelry. Rubens skillfully combines elements of baroque art with mythological symbolism to create a visually stunning tableau that celebrates femininity and love. The vibrant colors and dynamic brushwork bring life to every corner of the canvas, immersing viewers into this mythical world.
