More information

Lucas Cranach the Elder's painting "Venus and Amor", with the masterful handling of the delicate, transparent piece of fabric and elegant classical composition, can be dated to around 1520-25. The painting came to Sweden through the so-called "Prague Loot" and is part of the collections at Nationalmuseum, Stockholm. Nils Dardel's painting with the same composition transports the viewer several hundred years forward in time, to Dardel's characteristic brushwork and manner, in a personal interpretation of this well-known motif.
