The sculpture is considered a masterpiece of Neoclassical style but also has the mythological elements of emotional lovers, a clear sign of the emerging movement of Romanticism. The narrative follows that the male figure is that of god Eros or Cupid in Latin. The girl has been identified as Psyche. The plot has it that Cupid's mother Venus, the goddess of beauty, commanded Psyche to bring back a flask, but strictly forbade her from opening it. Out of curiosity, Psyche opened it and inhaled poisonous fumes that put her into a heavy, comalike sleep.

When Cupid found her lying motionless, he touched her carefully with the tip of his arrow to see if she was still alive. This is the exact moment captured by the sculptor: He lifts his beloved Psyche in a tender embrace of love. She also lets herself sink slowly backward, languorously taking her lover's head between her hands. The sculpture was designed perfectly and it can be looked at from different angles. The sculpture has a powerful impression of aliveness and shows remarkable subtlety and how he perfectly worked on the marble surface. Also visible are deliberately toothed chisel marks left on the rock surface. (http://www.antoniocanova.org)
