In ancient art, Eros is commonly depicted holding a host of different attributes, including a bow, torch, mirror, fan, butterfly or hare, as with this example. For representations of Eros holding or hunting hares, see N. Blanc and F. Gury, “Eros/Amor, Cupido” in LIMC, vol. III, nos. 303, 318 and 319.
