After reading these two works ( “Cupid and Psyche” and “Sleeping Beauty” ) I can just say that the focus of these two works is the indescribable beauty of the main characters. This beauty became the reason of all the calamities of the two main characters. That is why I think that in a basis of these two works is the archetype of the divine beauty that unites these two compositions.
