"Happy Union" is a mythological painting by Paolo Veronese, created around 1570 as part of his Allegory of Love series. As a stunning example of Mannerism (late renaissance) style, it was likely commissioned by Rudolf II for Prague Castle. The work is executed on a canvas using oil paints, which was common in that period. The painting’s rich mythological themes and intricate composition exemplify Veronese’s mastery during the late Renaissance, making it a significant piece in the collection of the National Gallery in London.
