EDITORS COMMENTS
In this oil on canvas print titled "Cupid, stung by a bee, is cherished by his Mother". Benjamin West transports us to the realm of Greek mythology. The scene depicts a moment of vulnerability and affection as Cupid, the winged god of love, finds solace in the arms of his maternal figure. The circular composition draws our attention to the central figures - Cupid and his mother. With tears streaming down his face and wings drooping in pain, Cupid's nakedness symbolizes both vulnerability and innocence. His mother, depicted as Aphrodite or Venus in Roman mythology, cradles him with tender care and protective embrace. The artist skillfully captures the emotional connection between mother and son. As Cupid seeks comfort from his injury caused by a mischievous bee sting, Aphrodite showers him with affectionate reassurance. Her gaze reflects deep concern for her wounded child while offering solace through her nurturing touch. This classical portrayal highlights the timeless bond between parent and child while delving into ancient mythological narratives that explore themes of love, pain, and protection. Through West's masterful brushstrokes, we are reminded that even divine beings experience moments of hurt but find healing within the comforting embrace of their loved ones. Displayed at the Corcoran Collection in Washington D. C. , this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its poignant depiction of maternal love transcending time and mythological realms.
