Did you know?
Cherubs, or putti, are winged child-like celestial beings that appear throughout Christian and Renaissance art as symbols of divine love, innocence, and protection. Originally depicted as full-sized angelic figures in religious texts, they were gradually reimagined in Renaissance paintings as plump, rosy-cheeked infants with feathered wings—an image that has dominated Western visual culture for centuries and remains a beloved motif in decorative arts.
