A charming and large scaled Italian 19th century white Carrara marble statue of a Venus and Cupid. The young Venus is seated on a rock with a flowing garment draped over her leg while gazing lovingly at the winged Cupid. She has one hand on her knee while the other is holding a scepter. Cupid is kneeling by her side with both of his hands in the air seemingly reaching for Venus. Wonderful expressions and intricately carved throughout.
