"Venus Asks Vulcan to Cast Arms for her Son Aeneas" is a painting by Sir Anthony van Dyck, a prominent Flemish Baroque artist of the 17th century. This artwork, created in the early 1630s, is a vivid depiction of a mythological scene from Virgil's epic poem, the Aeneid. The painting portrays Venus, the goddess of love, appealing to her husband Vulcan, the god of fire and metalworking, to forge weapons for their son Aeneas, who is destined to found Rome after the Trojan War.

The composition is rich in emotional and dynamic elements, showcasing Van Dyck's mastery in rendering divine figures with a human touch.

The interaction between the celestial figures is set against a backdrop that hints at Vulcan's forge, emphasizing the contrast between the ethereal and the earthly.

This painting not only exemplifies Van Dyck's skill in portraying complex narratives through art but also reflects the cultural and artistic interests of the Baroque period, where mythological and historical themes were often used to explore human emotions and ideals.
