Our curator Birte Rubach picked a set of three engravings, that show three different views of the bronze sculpture Mercury and Psyche by Adriaen de Vries (1545/46 or 1556-1626/27). The motif for the group of figures is taken from a scene in the story of Cupid and Psyche from Apuleius' Metamorphoses (2nd cent. AD).
