- Vénus et Adonis est un tableau réalisé en 1635 par Pierre Paul Rubens, conservé, depuis 1937, suite à un don de Harry Payne Bingham, au Metropolitan Museum of Art de New York. Le peintre s'inspire du récit mythologique des Métamorphoses d'Ovide, lequel raconte le mythe d'Adonis qui, amoureux de Vénus, finira par être tué par un sanglier. Le peintre se laisse porter par son amour de la littérature classique et des représentations antérieures de cette scène. (fr)
- In 1635, Peter Paul Rubens created Venus and Adonis, now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. He followed the mythological story in the Metamorphoses by Ovid, inspired from his love of classical literature and earlier depictions of this scene. This oil on canvas painting shows Venus accompanied by Cupid, embracing and pulling Adonis before he goes off to hunt. The artist uses specific colors, detail and strong contrast between light and dark to depict a dramatic and emotional scene. At the time Rubens created the painting, the mythological story of Venus and Adonis was popular in Renaissance and Baroque court art. Rubens was clearly inspired by the many existing depictions of this scene, in particular the famous Titian composition of the same name, of which there are numerous versions. This depicts the same moment of Adonis leaving Venus to hunt, despite her pleas to stay. He is killed later in the day. (en)
