Created between 1605-1615, this masterpiece measures an impressive 184.5x236 cm and can be found at the Muzeul National Brukenthal in Sibiu, Romania. The painting depicts three mythological figures: Ceres (the goddess of agriculture), Bacchus (the god of wine), and Venus (the goddess of love). The scene exudes a sense of abundance and joy as Ceres holds a horn of plenty overflowing with fruits and vegetables while Bacchus offers a cup filled with wine to Venus. Cupid hovers nearby, symbolizing the power of love.
