Apollo and Cupid is a bronze sculpture of the Greek god Apollo flanked by an amorino by the Flemish sculptor François Duquesnoy. Just like Duquesnoy's Mercury (whose putto is now lost) the statue was designed as a dialogue between a Greek god and a putto / Cupid. The sculpture has been described as more classicist when compared to the Mercury, with Apollo's feminine facial features akin to those of Duquesnoy's Saint Susanna, and the "vigorously molded" Cupid quite close to Duquesnoy's masterpiece, the putti adorning the Tomb of Ferdinand van den Eynde. Both the Mercury and Apollo and Cupid are currently housed at the private Liechtenstein Museum in Vienna.
