Venus and a Satyr (The 'Venus del Pardo'; after Titian)

Summary edit

Description
English: Oil painting on canvas, Venus and a Satyr (The 'Venus del Pardo'; after Titian), attributed to Miguel de la Cruz (active c.1630-1660), 1623/49. Venus reclines in the centre foreground, with male figures to the left. Putti ascend top left. The original painting of about 1535 was given by the Spanish King Philip IV to the English King Charles I in 1623 and bought by Mazarin by 1653 and is now in the Louvre, Paris. The diarist, John Evelyn mentions seeing a copy at the studio of Jan Van Belcamp and although Daniel Mytens was paid in 1625 for copying the picture when it was still in the King's collection, it is not likely this one is by the latter but maybe by the former artist. The frame is clearly designed for the picture as there is a carved satyr below each painted one and a carved winged cherub above Cupid in the picture.
