Venus and Cupid in a Chariot by Guercino. A sepia-toned sketch of a chariot drawn with one wheel visible and one obscured. A woman with curly dark hair wearing a short flowing dress holds a small child with curly dark hair. The pair are sitting sideways on the chariot, with the woman’s back to the left, looking down at the child who faces right. The child holds an object in the right hand. The chariot appears to be on top of clouds.
