I agree, the engraving is not only wonderfully accomplished, but the presence of the faun staying Venus's arm adds drama and layers of meaning that the less daring painting lacks!
Today is my birthday and I really like the idea that's more than the day after valentines, the day chocolate and cards go on sale and the flower selection has been severely depleted. 🤷♀️
I genuinely enjoy knowing that it's the last day of an ancient pagan sexual ritual where consensual bdsm was celebrated.
Thanks for this - it gave this kinky submissive a great deal of pleasure. 🫠
Splendid thoughts on Love, Lust and Passion. This engraving is incredible ( better than the painting.)

Poor little Cupid! Though I expect he usually gets his own way... It was a lovely read - thank you!
It is interesting how Cupid seemed to evolve out of folks' shared experiences of the reckless lust of horny teenage boys!
This was a pleasure to both look at and read.

Happy birthday! And I'm delighted you now know this particular day is imbued with all sorts of ancient kinky power!
