This pen drawing by Odoardo Fialetti, titled "Venus, Amor en een naakte figuur," depicts a scene from Roman mythology. The drawing shows Venus, the Roman goddess of love and beauty, being carried by a winged figure, likely Cupid. A third figure stands nude in the background, possibly representing a mortal observer of this divine encounter. Fialetti's work demonstrates a masterful use of line and shading, capturing the anatomical detail of the figures with precision and a sense of depth. This drawing, dating from 1583-1638, is housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcasing the artist's talent for depicting mythological subjects.
