This valuable sculpture group, created in the Imperial age according to a Hellenistic model, is probably related to a Rhodian statue from the II century A.D and depicted a Cupid on the lap of the goddess Psyche seated on a rock; Cupid is gently touching her breast. The quiver and arrows of the little Cupid are placed on the ground, on the surface of the plinth.

The sculpture – found in the waters of the port of Baia, among the remains of the sunken palace complex – is in a good preservation state, even though both heads and other important elements are missing.
