About the artwork

Venus, the goddess of love, resplendent in a brilliant blue dress, looks down on a golden shield bearing an image of Athena. Venus went to her husband Vulcan's blacksmith shop and asked him to make weapons for her son Aeneas. Here the powerfully built Vulcan holds up the shield intended for Aeneas, gestures to the armor at his feet and looks up to his wife for her approval. In the lower left corner are two Cyclopes who made the armor under Vulcan's direction.

Francesco Solimena made a series of mythological paintings for the Procurator Canale in Venice. This canvas and its pendant, Tithonus Blinded by the Coronation of Aurora, may commemorate a marriage, as both images show gifts exchanged between goddesses and their spouses.

The fellow here sits naked with a cloth in red over the loins. The man stands muscled legs, torso, chest and arms. Behind him the woman with deep cleavage looks down on him in a green blouse and cloth in blue over her lap. Next to her an angel or cupid.

Francesco Solimena (4 October 1657-3 April 1747) was a prolific Italian painter of the Baroque period, one of an established family of painters and draughtsmen.
