Vintage Heavy Solid Brass Cupid (Eros) Statue on Celestial Globe – 17” French Ar

This commanding winged Cupid, also known as Eros, stands poised atop a celestial globe, captured mid-motion with wings fully spread and bow drawn as if suspended between heaven and earth. The sculptural posture is dynamic and expressive, radiating classical mythology and romantic symbolism, with every angle revealing depth, movement, and intention. One foot balances on a star-etched sphere, reinforcing the celestial theme and elevating the figure beyond simple decoration into true statement art.

Standing a substantial 17 inches tall, this piece is solid, heavy, and cold to the touch, exhibiting the unmistakable presence of cast metal. When gently tapped, it produces a clear metallic ring, consistent with solid brass or bronze, rather than resin or composite materials. The finish displays a warm golden tone with darker undertones and natural patina, suggesting either aged brass or bronze, or a traditional bronze-style finish commonly used in high-quality European decorative sculpture.
