| Antonio Canova's neoclassical sculpture Psyche Revived by Cupid's Kiss depicts the popular story of the two lovers. The Age of Enlightenment, at the end of the 18th century, experienced in Neoclassicism the rediscovery and imitation of the arts of Rome and ancient Greece, and of their values of simplicity and simmetry. The sculpture ended up in France after being acquired by Joachim Murat, Napoleon's general and brother-in-law. |
