  • Vénus et Adonis est un tableau réalisé en 1635 par Pierre Paul Rubens, conservé, depuis 1937, suite à un don de Harry Payne Bingham, au Metropolitan Museum of Art de New York. Le peintre s'inspire du récit mythologique des Métamorphoses d'Ovide, lequel raconte le mythe d'Adonis qui, amoureux de Vénus, finira par être tué par un sanglier. Le peintre se laisse porter par son amour de la littérature classique et des représentations antérieures de cette scène. (fr)
