Cupid remains a dominant figure in Neoclassical and Renaissance art. Neoclassicism aimed for elegance and simplicity akin to Renaissance pieces, countering Baroque's grandeur. This depiction of Cupid as a small child with delicate wings aligns seamlessly with the aesthetic codes of both Neoclassicism and Renaissance: subject matter, proportions, and resemblance to ancient models are all harmoniously in place.
