Venus, Mars and Cupid
Paris Bordon

The picture by Paris Bordon is clearly allegorical, with mythological references, and portrays Venus, Mars and Cupid in a natural landscape, thick with shadows in the vegetation, which opens into a blue patch of sky, striped with clouds on high to the left, close.

The canvas by the great sixteenth-century Venetian painter is in excellent condition. The restoration carried out a few years ago removed a repainting carried out for motives of censorship on the décolleté of the goddess.
