A nice work! I have also done a vinginette of this painting - you can see mine on my site (below). It is a wonderful work by M. Buoguereau. I think he did his in the late 1890s and the original is in the hands of a collector. I could not find it in any museums. His painting is a full-figure cupidon and exhibits wonderful use of lighting the human form - as do most of his works.
