Cupid and Psyche

Jacques-Louis David

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a painting of two naked people on a bed. The person on the left sits on the edge of the bed, has short curly hair and holds a torch in their right hand. They look directly at the viewer. The person on the right lies on the bed with their eyes closed, their head resting on their left arm. Their right arm rests on their right leg. A draped curtain hangs behind the bed. A window on the right reveals a view of trees and a building. The artist's signature and the year 1813 appear in the bottom-right corner.
