Custom natural marble statue | Life-size stone sculpture
This depiction of the quintessential mythological lovers Cupid and Psyche demonstrates one of the core tenants of romance in art: both of the partners are distinct and unique, with their own characters and moods, even as they are bound together as one. The masterful stonework grants emotion to Psyche, who seems ecstatic to the point of...
...swooning in the arms of her immortal lover Cupid (known as “Eros” in Greek), while Cupid himself seems more alert, very pleased with himself, but with eyes wide open, perhaps in a casual kind of protectiveness to his betrothed. His wings, carved out of the marble stone with utmost precision, seem to belong to both of them now, as they cradle each other in divine love.
