"Genius of Mars" is an etching by Giovanni Battista Piranesi, a renowned 18th-century Italian artist. The artwork depicts a winged figure, possibly Cupid, controlling a chariot drawn by two rearing horses. The dynamic composition and detailed rendering of the figures and chariot convey a sense of power and movement, reflecting Piranesi's interest in classical architecture and mythology. The etching's intricate lines and shading contribute to its dramatic and evocative quality, characteristic of Piranesi's artistic style.
