The painting depicts a woman dressed in long, flowing robes leaning towards a stone pedestal. The pedestal supports a statue of a nude male figure with wings. The woman's right knee is bent, and she appears to be moving towards the pedestal with her robes billowing behind her. The statue on the pedestal has one arm raised. There are trees and bushes in the background, and a small cherub-like figure is visible on the left side. The entire scene is rendered in sepia tones. The title of the work is Invocation to Love, and it was created by Jean-Honoré Fragonard.
