Giovanni Battista Piranesi's etching "Cupid winning souls" depicts the Roman god of love, Cupid, standing on a seashell and holding a bow and arrow. He is pulling a butterfly with a rope, symbolizing the conquering power of love. This print is typical of Piranesi's work, which often features classical motifs and intricate details. Created by the renowned Italian artist during his lifetime (1720-1778), this artwork showcases Piranesi's skill in etching, evident in the delicate lines and precise detail.
