Xavier Bray, director of the Wallace Collection, stated, "Amor Vincit Omnia is one of Caravaggio's masterpieces, painted at the height of his powers... a once in a lifetime opportunity for the public to see this picture free-of-charge."
Critic Jonathan Jones remarks, "The full-frontal menace of Caravaggio's boldest painting creates one of art's most unsettling encounters. Cupid is a real youth, modelled, it was said... after his own boyfriend 'that lay with him'."
