Venus and Mercury Frame:natural attributed to John AstleyThis canvas is the largest of two fragments of an early painting by Poussin. A smaller picture with music making putti would have formerly been to the left of this fragment. It is now in the collection of the Louvre. The painting was probably cut down around 1764 in France, because of damage to the top part of the canvas or because of its erotic content. Venus and Mercury rest in the shade beneath a group of trees, next to the goddess's gold chariot.
