The central group of Cupid and Venus are identified by traditional attributes (Cupid with wings and a quiver; Venus with a golden apple). Time (upper right) is shown as an old man with an hour glass.

There is no certain evidence for the early history of NG 651 but it corresponds with the picture described by Vasari that was sent to King Francis I of France before 1547. A picture by Bronzino of similar theme and design is in Budapest (Szépmüvészeti Múzeum).
Apparently in the collection of Lord Spencer, Althorp, before 1742; bought with the Edmond Beaucousin collection, Paris, 1860.
