{"product_id":"cupid-and-psyche-carlo-gregori","title":"Cupid and Psyche - Carlo Gregori","description":"\u003cp\u003eA precise eighteenth-century engraving by Carlo Gregori, documenting a classical sculpture of Cupid and Psyche with technical mastery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fine art print by Carlo Gregori depicts a classical sculptural study of Cupid and Psyche. The work originates from a series documenting antique statuary, a common practice for eighteenth-century printmakers who sought to preserve the aesthetic ideals of antiquity for a wider audience. Gregori, an Italian engraver, worked from drawings by Giovanni Domenico Campiglia to translate the three-dimensional form of the marble original into a two-dimensional medium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition focuses on the figures from behind, allowing the viewer to observe the anatomical precision and the delicate rendering of the wings. The use of hatching and cross-hatching techniques creates a sense of volume and texture, mimicking the smooth surface of polished stone. The figures stand upon a simple plinth, isolated against a plain background, which directs attention entirely to the physical form and the interaction between the two mythological characters. The inscription at the base, 'AMOR ET PSYCHE', identifies the subjects according to their Latin names, reflecting the scholarly interest in classical mythology that defined the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGregori's technique demonstrates the technical rigour required for reproductive printmaking during the mid-eighteenth century. By employing precise lines, he captures the subtle play of light and shadow across the musculature and the drapery. This print offers a clear view of the sculptural proportions favoured by artists of the era. It is a piece that appeals to those interested in the history of classical art, the evolution of printmaking techniques, and the documentation of antique heritage. The neutral palette and clean lines make it a versatile addition to a collection, providing a quiet, academic aesthetic that complements both traditional and contemporary interiors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/neo-classical-vases-in-a-landscape-jean-charles-delafosse\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eNeo-classical Vases in a Landscape - Jean Charles Delafosse — Jean Charles Delafosse\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/virginia-dalrymple-george-frederic-watts-1\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eVirginia Dalrymple - George Frederic Watts — George Frederic Watts\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Carlo Gregori","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58682603405647,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58682658029903,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58682658062671,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58682658095439,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58682658128207,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58682658160975,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58682658193743,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58682658226511,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58682658259279,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58682658292047,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58682658324815,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58682658357583,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Cupid-and-Psyche_Poster_CompositorV1_1788591265941.jpg?v=1788591703","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/cupid-and-psyche-carlo-gregori","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
