The Wedding Feast of Cupid and Psyche is a 1635 ink by François Perrier, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting depicts a lively scene of a wedding feast, with a large group of people gathered around a table. The figures are dressed in classical attire, with flowing robes and laurel wreaths on their heads. The table is laden with food and drink, and the atmosphere appears to be one of joy and celebration. In the center of the composition, a figure is shown playing a musical instrument, adding to the festive atmosphere. The overall mood of the painting is one of revelry and abandon, with the figures seemingly lost in the moment. This painting is a great example of the work of artist Perrier, François.
François Perrier (French pronunciation: ; 1590–1650) was a French painter, draftsman, and printmaker.
