Winged figure in blue robe reaches toward a reclining woman in white drapery beside a stone ledge, with roses and distant towers behind.

Cupid and Psyche

A winged youth in a flowing blue robe leans over from the left, holding a bundle of arrows and reaching toward a reclining woman in white drapery who extends her hand to him. Behind them, a rose garden and distant towers fade into a pale blue sky; the modeling is smooth and finely detailed.

Español: Cupido y Psique

Un joven alado con una túnica azul fluida se inclina desde la izquierda, sosteniendo un manojo de flechas y extendiendo la mano hacia una mujer recostada, vestida con telas blancas, que le tiende la suya. Detrás de ellos, un jardín de rosas y torres lejanas se desvanecen en un cielo azul pálido; el modelado es suave y muy detallado.

Português: Cupido e Psique

Um jovem alado, com uma túnica azul esvoaçante, inclina-se pela esquerda segurando um feixe de flechas e estende a mão em direção a uma mulher reclinada, envolta em panos brancos, que lhe estende a sua. Atrás deles, um jardim de rosas e torres distantes desvanecem-se num céu azul pálido; o modelado é suave e bem detalhado.
