 Abstract. The periodical publications from the 19th century exhibit interest in ancient imagery, inherited from the classicist period. This study focuses on the representation of Cupid in the journal Tsvetnik. The objectives included analyzing the content of the journal to identify instances of the Cupid image, categorizing references to the ancient motif, and interpreting the gathered data. The findings suggest that Russian authors aimed to align the representation of Cupid with classical exemplars, as evidenced by both imitative poems and original texts that offer a fresh perspective on the ancient image.
