If you want to know the actual difference between the three when it comes to art and architecture, it's quite simple. A putto is a male winged baby figure which is usually up to mischief of some kind. In contrast, a cupid is a putto armed with arrows (of love), while a cherub is a putto used in a religious context.

As it's St Valentine's Day, I thought I'd share this cheeky little cupid climbing a keystone above the entrance to 215 High Street in Glasgow to take potshots at the people passing below. I know he's really a putto, but putti, cupids, and indeed cherubs, are used pretty much interchangeably in popular culture.
