About the artwork:

This painting portrays a playful yet symbolic struggle between innocence and desire. A young girl, draped in soft white fabric, leans back as she resists the advances of a mischievous Cupid, who reaches toward her with an arrow in hand. Her expression, a mixture of defiance and amusement, suggests an internal conflict—she is both aware of love’s power and reluctant to succumb to it.

Bouguereau’s signature attention to detail is evident in the delicate rendering of skin, the soft curls of the girl’s hair, and the feathered texture of Cupid’s wings. The composition balances grace and tension, with the girl's extended arm creating a dynamic interaction between the figures. This piece reflects 19th-century ideals of romanticism and purity, while also carrying a subtle narrative about the inevitability of love’s influence, a theme frequently explored in classical and academic art.
