"Two Cupids," a 16th-century engraving by Agostino Veneziano, depicts two winged cherubs engaged in a playful, yet slightly mischievous, interaction. The cherubs are depicted in a landscape setting with a tree behind them, adding a sense of natural whimsy. The detailed lines of the engraving give the image a sense of depth and realism, highlighting the delicate features of the cherubs. This small-scale work, created during the Renaissance period, exemplifies the style of engravings popular at the time, often depicting classical themes with a light-hearted approach.
