Venus and Adonis by Titian, Italian 16th Century

https://www.nga.gov/artworks/1223-venus-and-adonis

Venus, as if filled with foreboding about Adonis’s fate, desperately clings to her lover, while he pulls himself free of her embrace, impatient for the hunt and with his hounds straining at the leash. The goddess’s gesture is echoed by that of Cupid, who anxiously watches the lovers’ leave-taking while clutching a dove—a creature sacred to Venus.
Foreword by Perry B. Cott and notes by Otto Stelzer.
