Description
Photograph of the painting "Love and Death" by Watt, depicting a young cupid assaulted by a robed figure, [s.d.]. The tall, imposing figure stands in a lightly-colored robe with its back to the viewer at left, its right arm outstretched over the cowering cupid. The cupid itself can be seen farther in the background and to the right, farther up on the marble steps beneath the two. He raises his right arm up in defense, while unfurling his full wingspan. Flowers and vines creep in from the outskirts.
