"Venus en Amor in een landschap" is an etching by Abraham Bosse, dating back to 1612-1676 and housed in the Rijksmuseum. The artwork depicts the Roman goddess Venus, accompanied by Cupid, a cherub with wings, walking through a landscape. The figures are enclosed in a circular frame, creating a sense of intimacy and focusing the viewer's attention on the central figures. The artwork exemplifies Bosse's mastery of line and detail. The delicate lines of the figures, the naturalism of the landscape, and the subtle shading all contribute to the overall elegance and charm of the piece.
