 "Psyche", c. 1842 by Wolf von Hoyer  - Neue Pinakothek, Munich, Germany.

Note: Fragile Psyche holds a box containing charms given by Persephone to be delivered to Venus who needed them to restitute her allure.
Psyche was not supposed to open this box and by doing so, earned the hatred of Aphrodite.
