About Artwork: (About 1575) "This is one of a series of four paintings by Veronese that concern the trials and rewards of love, although their precise meanings remain unclear. The compositions are designed to be seen from below, so we know the pictures were intended for a ceiling or a series of ceilings. A couple are united at the hands of a nude woman assisted by a boy – possibly Venus and Cupid, although they lack traits that would identify them securely. The union between the couple is marked by a laurel wreath signifying their virtue and an olive branch symbolising peace. The gold chain held by the boy probably refers to marriage, while the dog is a symbol of fidelity. The woman sitting on the stone globe and cornucopia may instead represent Fortune, who rewards fidelity with peace (the olive branch) and plenty (the cornucopia)." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
