Cupid Carving His Bow
text:
Cupid Carving His Bow is a marble sculpture by the Flemish artist François Duquesnoy. The sculpture might be the first notable work in marble by Duquesnoy. According to Estelle Lingo: "The significance that the infant putto held for Duquesnoy's vision of the Greek style is demonstrated most clearly by the Cupid carving his bow." The sculpture was badly damaged during World War II, when it was shot in the head and broke into several pieces. It is currently housed at the Bode Museum in Berlin.
