The punishment of Eros in the House of Punished Love, Pompeii

This small picture showing the punishment of Eros has the typically literary flavor of idyll. Aphrodite, seated on a rock, is looking down in the direction indicated by Anteros and her shoulder to where Eros is standing in chains and restrained by another woman, crying for the loss of his bow and arrows.
Now it is in the Naples National Archaeological Museum
