Category:Putti

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Articles relating to putti and their depictions. They are figures in a work of art depicted as chubby male children, usually naked and sometimes winged. Originally limited to profane passions in symbolism, the putto came to represent the sacred cherub (plural cherubim), and in Baroque art the putto came to represent the omnipresence of God. A putto representing a cupid is also called an amorino (plural amorini) or amoretto (plural amoretti).
