Is God gay rule?
(lemmy.world)
Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
Isn't the top-left image Cupid (i.e. a god)?
Nah, that's a generic cherub. Reasonable question because both are depicted as children.
That's a putto, which has intersection with depictions of Cupid and cherubim. Biblically accurate cherubim look like this:
Proginoskes, a cherubim in A Wind In The Door by Madeleine L'Engle was quite annoyed that cherubs were depicted as putti.
Eros is young and boyish, but regarded as adult, and Apollo (his rival in Olympian archery competitions) likes to mock him for looking childlike.
Oops, I was confused as well!
