Amor Vincit Omnia Poster

Celebrate the triumph of love with Caravaggio’s Amor Vincit Omnia (c. 1602), also known as Amor Victorious or Victorious Cupid. This iconic Baroque masterpiece depicts Cupid, the Roman god of love, with dark eagle wings, confidently perched amid the scattered symbols of human achievements—musical instruments, armour, scientific tools, and laurel wreaths—trampled beneath his foot. Caravaggio’s realistic portrayal of Cupid breaks from traditional idealised cherubs, presenting a knowing, insolent boy with a crooked grin and tousled hair. The painting’s dramatic chiaroscuro and vivid detail highlight the allegory of love conquering all, inspired by Virgil’s famous phrase Omnia Vincit Amor et nos cedamus amori. Commissioned by Vincenzo Giustiniani, this work was highly prized and inspired contemporary poets and artists alike. Now housed in the Gemäldegalerie, Berlin, this museum-quality print is perfect for art lovers and collectors seeking iconic Italian Baroque art and timeless symbolism for their home or office.
