Venus and the Death of Adonis, 17th Century Venetian School - Follower of Paolo Veronese (1528-1588) Large 17th century Venetian School oil on canvas painting depicting the Death of Adonis. Excellent quality early Venetian School scene depicting Venus/Aphrodite attending her beloved Adonis after he has been mortally wounded by a wild boar sent by Ares, the god of war, who was jealous of her affection for Adonis. Would be greatly improved by a light professional cleaning for which we can provide a quote. Presented in an antique gilt frame Dimensions: 39.5" x 30" approximately framed
