In Greek mythology, Eros was the god of love. He was capable of overpowering the minds of all gods and all men. Literary sources of the sixth and fifth centuries B.C. portrayed him as a powerful, often cruel, capricious being, and in classical Greek art Eros was usually represented as a winged youth. A radically different visual image of Eros-as a charming, winged child asleep on a rock-was introduced centuries later by Hellenistic artists. The Metropolitan Museum of Art's statue of Eros Sleeping-one of the finest of the surviving bronze statues from classical antiquity-will be the focus of the special exhibition Sleeping Eros, opening January 29, 2013.
