Cupid is a notable bronze sculpture created by the American artist Frederick William MacMonnies in 1890. MacMonnies, a prominent figure in the American Renaissance movement, was renowned for his skill in both sculpture and painting. His work often reflected classical themes and was characterized by a meticulous attention to detail and a dynamic sense of movement.

The sculpture depicts Cupid, the Roman god of love, in a playful and dynamic pose. Unlike traditional representations of Cupid as a cherubic infant, MacMonnies' interpretation presents him as a lithe, youthful figure, capturing a moment of graceful motion. The figure is poised with a bow, ready to shoot an arrow, symbolizing the sudden and often unexpected nature of love. The detailed rendering of Cupid's anatomy and the fluidity of his stance showcase MacMonnies' mastery of the human form and his ability to convey emotion and narrative through sculpture.

Cupid was created during a period when MacMonnies was gaining significant recognition in both the United States and Europe. His training under the tutelage of renowned sculptors such as Augustus Saint-Gaudens and his studies at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris greatly influenced his artistic development. This sculpture exemplifies the blend of American innovation and European classical tradition that characterizes much of MacMonnies' work.

The sculpture has been exhibited in various prestigious venues and remains an important piece in the study of American sculpture from the late 19th century. It reflects the era's fascination with mythological subjects and the revival of classical ideals in art. MacMonnies' Cupid continues to be celebrated for its artistic excellence and its contribution to the rich tapestry of American art history.
