EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless beauty of William Edward Frost's oil painting, "Classical Subject (Venus, Cupid, and Psyche)". Measuring 17.8x20.3 cm, this masterpiece is housed in Nottingham City Museums and Galleries at Nottingham Castle. The image transports us to a world of religious mythology and enchantment. At its center, we see Venus, the goddess of love herself, reclining gracefully with her son Cupid by her side. They are joined by Psyche, a mortal princess who became the object of Cupid's desire. The composition is filled with passion and desire as Venus sits nude on an elegant throne-like structure while Cupid playfully hovers above her shoulder. The landscape surrounding them adds depth to the scene as it stretches out into the distance. Frost's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the intricate depiction of each figure's anatomy to their expressive facial features. The artist skillfully captures both vulnerability and strength through his portrayal of these mythical characters. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the power that love holds over our lives - how it can bring joy or heartache depending on its course. It serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with romance throughout history. This print allows us to appreciate Frost's remarkable talent while also immersing ourselves in a world where gods and mortals intertwine in pursuit of love everlasting.
