Notes from the Artist:
This was taken inside the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. This is one of my favorite statues, its of "Psyche & Cupid", the legendary tale of how Psyche's beauty was drawing more attention than the Goddess Venus, so Venus sets out to punish Psyche. Venus orders her son, Cupid, to make Psyche fall in love with the ugliest man on earth. However, Cupid ends up falling in love with Psyche, which then causes lots of drama and almost losing each other...but in the end, they end up finding each other again, giving a message that love will always triumph in the end. This photo has Sepia tones and a special soft glow effect so that the focus is just on the two lover's embrace. This card is great for Valentines Day for anybody who loves fine art, photography, travel, or a great love story (or anybody looking for a card that isnt pink, red, or with hearts).
