Designed Early 17th Century Love Lust Pages Pair Poet Roses Specialized Valesio Work Disciplining Embodiment

EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Venus Whipping Cupid Roses" takes us back to the early 17th century, showcasing an exquisite engraving by Giovanni Luigi Valesio. In this artwork, we witness a powerful scene of Venus disciplining her unruly son, Cupid. With halfhearted efforts and a mischievous smile on his face, Cupid is being chastised by his mother for his wayward behavior. The image beautifully captures the embodiment of lust through the presence of a smiling satyr in the background. As an Italian poet and prolific engraver specialized in creating allegorical prints, Valesio masterfully designed this work as one of a pair of love allegories. Measuring 7 15/16 x 5 1/4 inches (202 x 134 cm), this enchanting print showcases Valesio's attention to detail and skillful technique. The inscription accompanying the artwork states that love can be easily chastised—a notion that adds depth to our understanding of this piece. Artokoloro has flawlessly reproduced this rare gem from their Liszt Collection, allowing art enthusiasts to appreciate its beauty and historical significance. This print serves as a testament to Valesio's talent as an artist and offers viewers a glimpse into the rich artistic heritage of the early 17th century.
