Den triumferende Amor 1882

"Den triumferende Amor" (The Triumphant Cupid), created in 1882 by Danish sculptor Th. Stein, depicts the Roman god of love, Cupid, as a winged, youthful figure seated atop a lion. Cupid, a symbol of love and desire, is shown in a triumphant pose, with his outstretched arm suggesting a gesture of victory. The bronze sculpture, which is now held in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, captures the essence of Cupid's powerful and enduring influence. This work exemplifies Stein's talent for imbuing classical subjects with a touch of realism and dynamism.
