An Allegory of Venus and Cupid, c.1550 by Agnolo Bronzino, National Gallery, London.

Bronzino's style is known as Mannerism, a style of exaggeration and poses. The meaning of the allegory is uncertain but figures such as Time (the old man), Cupid with his wings and Venus holding the golden apple she received from Paris, are easily recognizable.
