This advanced fine-art cross stitch design was developed from the painting Le Ravissement de Psyche painted by William Bouguereau in 1895. Psyche is finally in the arms of her love, Cupid, as they ascend to heaven. This is one of Bouguereau's more romantic paintings.

The myth of Cupid and Psyche dates back to the 2nd century AD. Venus is very jealous of the beautiful Psyche and orders her son, Cupid, to make Psyche fall in love with a monster; however, Cupid falls in love with Psyche himself. They implore the gods to turn Psyche into an immortal being and allow them to be married in heaven. Bouguereau created several other paintings based on the Cupid and Psyche story including Cupid and Psyche as Children, Psyche and Cupid and Psyche. Le Ravissement de Psyche is part of a private collection.
