Sine Cerere et Baccho friget Venus (Terentius, Eunuchus, 732) is a 1614 oil by Cornelis van Haarlem, a Early Baroque Italian work, held at Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden.
This painting depicts three nude figures in a lush, natural setting. The central figure, a woman, sits with her back to the viewer, while the figure on the left, also a woman, leans against her. The third figure, a man, sits between them, holding a musical instrument. The scene is rich in detail, with the figures surrounded by fruit and foliage. The woman on the left wears a crown of flowers, adding to the sense of abundance and joy. The painting's use of warm colors and soft lighting creates a sense of intimacy and tranquility.
