About the Item
Oil on Canvas. Roman school of the 17th century.
In classical mythology, the goddess Venus, wife of Vulcan, had him forge weapons for her son Aeneas.
In the scene, set in the cave where the forge is located, Vulcan is in fact forging on the 'anvil an armor, with the help of his assistants, while Venus, accompanied by the trusty Cupid, arrives to verify the work.
From the same god Vulcan also Thetis, the sea nymph mother of Achilles, commissioned weapons for her son to protect him during the Trojan War.
Restored and re-tinted, the painting has a color drop in the upper right corner.
It is presented in early 20th-century frame, coeval with the restoration.
