Each figure is beautifully detailed, showcasing the artistic skill of Friedrich Johann Bertuch who created this masterpiece in Weimar in 1805.

The image captures the essence of these mythological beings - Venus exuding beauty and love, Eros representing desire and passion, Mercury embodying communication and travel. These gods were revered by the ancient Greeks and Romans as powerful forces that influenced different aspects of life.
