La Belle et la Bête" ("The Beauty and the Beast") was written by Gabrielle-Suzanne de Villeneuve, and then abridged by Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont in 1740; [76] in 1991 it inspired the Disney movie Beauty and the Beast. It has been said that Gabrielle was inspired [77] [78] by the tale Cupid and Psyche. [79] Depictions [ edit ] Pliny, Natural History 36.22, describes it as on a par with the Cnidian Venus both in its nobility and in the wrong it had endured, as a certain main from Rhodes had fallen in love with it and left a visible trace of his love (vestigium amoris); Goffen, Renaissance Rivals, p. 96.

In other contexts, Cupid with a dolphin recurs as a playful motif, as in garden statuary at Pompeii that shows a dolphin rescuing Cupid from an octopus, or Cupid holding a dolphin. The dolphin, often elaborated fantastically, might be constructed as a spout for a fountain. [34] On a modern-era fountain in the Palazzo Vecchio, Florence, Italy, Cupid seems to be strangling a dolphin. [35] Charles Brian Rose, "The Parthians in Augustan Rome," American Journal of Archaeology 109.1 (2005), pp. 27–28 The Roman god Cupid even enchanted his own mother, throwing the goddess of love into quite a few illicit love affairs.

Psyche knew she bedded a god, but never knew which god. Psyche never beheld her husband, never saw how he looks, never knew who she was sleeping with at night. The Roman god Cupid kept himself invisible from her, kept Psyche in the dark about his identity, on account that if Psyche knew, and her sisters consequently knew, and other people far off knew — his mother would know, and that meant big trouble both for Cupid and Psyche, who of her beauty had robbed the goddess of beauty herself of her followers.

Cupid continued to be a popular figure in the Middle Ages, when under Christian influence he often had a dual nature as Heavenly and Earthly love. In the Renaissance, a renewed interest in classical philosophy endowed him with complex allegorical meanings. In contemporary popular culture, Cupid is shown drawing his bow to inspire romantic love, often as an icon of Valentine's Day. [2] Cupid's powers are similar, though not identical, to Kamadeva, the Hindu god of human love. The theme was also expressed as the triumph of Cupid, as in the Triumphs of Petrarch.
