The work titled "Young Girl Defending Herself against Eros", painted in 1880 by William-Adolphe Bouguereau, a French painter of the academic style.
It depicts a beautiful girl, with a playful gesture towards the Greek god of love, represented as a small angel. She pushes him away, and he tries to prick her with one of his enchanted arrows. William painted the picture in his studio and added a background inspired by the fabulous French countryside.
It is currently on display at the J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles, United States.
