The painting clearly expresses all the pictorial characteristics, both stylistic than chromatic, unique art by Peter Paul Rubens.
In fact, this interesting work, which offers a particularly captivating subject, is part of the endless repertoire of the great Flemish master, perhaps the main representative of the Baroque in Europe.
The canvas is very luminous and the naked bodies of the Putti struck by the light stand out with a beautiful volumetric effect from the dark background. In addition to the four protagonists, depicted in poses perfectly designed to form an elegantly balanced whole, a sheep and a fruit composition are depicted.
The colors are warm and nuanced and the contrast between lights and shadows is perfectly calibrated.
The figures are round and fleshy, and respond to the most classic dictates of his painting.
The author of the painting is one of the large group of students and followers who have followed his extraordinary painting.
The large format of the canvas and the excellent sensation to the eye, denote a remarkable knowledge of pigments and a great mastery of the palette.
