"Cupid and Psyche" is a renowned painting by the French artist Jacques Louis David, completed in 1817. This artwork is a significant example of the Neoclassical period, which sought to revive the ideals and aesthetics of classical antiquity. The painting depicts the mythological tale of Cupid, the Roman god of love, and Psyche, a mortal woman of unparalleled beauty, whose love story is one of the most enduring from classical mythology. The narrative, derived from "The Golden Ass" by Apuleius, a Latin novel from the 2nd century AD, explores themes of love, betrayal, and redemption, culminating in the ultimate union of Cupid and Psyche as deities.

Jacques Louis David, a leading figure in Neoclassical art, is celebrated for his mastery in composition, precise draughtsmanship, and the ability to infuse his subjects with psychological depth. In "Cupid and Psyche," David meticulously captures the tender moment of intimacy between the lovers, with Cupid depicted in the act of awakening Psyche with a kiss - a scene that symbolizes the triumph of love over adversity. The painting is characterized by its clear lines, balanced composition, and the use of soft, luminous colors that enhance the ethereal quality of the scene.

The artwork not only exemplifies David's skill and his commitment to Neoclassical principles but also reflects the cultural and intellectual milieu of his time, which was deeply influenced by Enlightenment ideals and a renewed interest in classical literature and mythology. "Cupid and Psyche" remains a testament to the enduring appeal of classical myths and their capacity to convey universal themes of love, beauty, and human resilience. Today, the painting is celebrated for its artistic and historical significance, contributing to Jacques Louis David's legacy as one of the most influential artists of his era.
