The Death of Adonis with Venus Cupid and the Three Graces — Peter Paul Rubens

Peter Paul Rubens’s The Death of Adonis with Venus Cupid and the Three Graces, dated 1614, portrays the tragic aftermath of Adonis’s death in a composition of grief and dramatic beauty. The fallen Adonis is surrounded by Venus, Cupid, and the Three Graces, transforming classical mythology into an emotionally charged scene. Rubens’s vigorous handling, rich colour, and dynamic figures exemplify the theatrical power of Flemish Baroque painting, while the gathering around Adonis offers a poignant meditation on love, loss, and mortality.
