Cupid finding Psyche: winged cupid standing over body of Psyche asleep below a fountain, roses on a trellis behind 1866

Edward Burne-Jones's 1866 painting "Cupid finding Psyche" depicts a scene from the classical myth of Cupid and Psyche. Cupid, portrayed as a winged, youthful figure, stands over a sleeping Psyche, who reclines in an idealized pose. The setting is a lush garden with rose trellises, which adds to the romance of the scene. The painting captures a moment of anticipation and longing, reflecting the Pre-Raphaelite style popularized by Burne-Jones. The work is currently housed in the British Museum in London.
