Cupid and psyche. 
She is hiding bow that was taking from him...
The myth of eros (cupid in latin) and psyche is probably one of the best love stories in classical mythology. Eros, son of aphrodite, was the personification of intense love desire and he was depicted throwing arrows to people in order to hit their heart and make them fall in love. Psyche, a beautiful maiden, personifies the human soul. In fact, she is the symbol of the soul purified by passions and misfortunes and who is, from now on, prepared to enjoy eternal happiness. 
Psykhe (psyche) was the goddess of the soul and the wife of eros (roman cupid) god of love.
She was once a mortal princess whose extraordinary beauty earned the ire of aphrodite (roman venus) when men began turning their worship away from the goddess towards the girl. Aphrodite commanded eros make psykhe fall in love with the most hideous of men but the god instead fell in love and carried her off to his hidden palace. Eros hide his true identity and told psykhe she must never gaze upon his face. Her jealous sisters, however, tricked her into disobeying and the angry god forsook her. Psykhe searched the world for her lost love and eventually came into the service of aphrodite. The goddess commanded her perform a series of seemingly impossible tasks which culminated in a journey to the underworld. Psykhe was afterwards reunited with eros and the couple were married in a ceremony attended by all the gods.
