Fortune withheld by Love
The painting reproduces the famous canvas by Guido Reni with the same iconography now preserved in the Vatican Pinacoteca. Fortuna is depicted half-naked, wrapped in a soft shawl, flying over the skies dispensing riches; little Love tries to hold her back, distracting her from her office. The painting, antique and of good quality, confirms the great resonance that the intelligent Renian models had throughout the 17th and 18th centuries.
