Venus and Cupid 

Adam Elsheimer's "Venus and Cupid" is a pen and brown wash drawing that showcases the artist's mastery of light and shadow. The drawing depicts Venus and Cupid, the Roman goddess of love and her son, in a intimate moment. Venus is seated and looking at Cupid, who is seated in front of her. Elsheimer’s interest in naturalism and the depiction of light is evident in the work. The drawing's soft, brown tones and subtle details create a sense of depth and atmosphere, characteristic of Elsheimer's work.
