DIALOG:
What is The Dawn of Love (painting)?
- The Dawn of Love (painting) The Dawn of Love, also known as Venus Now Wakes, and Wakens Love, is an oil painting on canvas by English artist William Etty, first exhibited in 1828 and currently in the Russell-Cotes Art Gallery & Museum in Bournemouth.
- What is significant about this painting?
- Loosely based on a passage from John Milton's 1634 masque "Comus", it shows a nude Venus leaning across to wake the sleeping Love by stroking his wings.
- Was this a popular piece of art?
- While Etty often included nude figures in his work, he rarely depicted physical intimacy, and owing to this, "The Dawn of Love" is one of his more unusual paintings.
- Is there anything else notable about this painting?
- The open sensuality of the work was intended to present a challenge to the viewer mirroring the plot of "Comus", in which the heroine is tempted by desire but remains rational and detached.
- Did it have any other significance?
- While a few critics praised elements of its composition and execution, "The Dawn of Love" was very poorly received when first exhibited. Etty had developed a reputation for painting realistic figures, and his stylised Venus was thought unduly influenced by foreign artists such as Rubens as well as being overly voluptuous and unrealistically coloured, while the painting as a whole was considered tasteless and obscene. "The Dawn of Love" was not among the 133 paintings exhibited in the major 1849 retrospective exhibition of Etty's works, and its exhibition in Glasgow in 1899 drew complaints for its supposed obscenity.
- Where was it displayed after it's first exhibition?
- 
Next turn: In 1889 it was bought by Sir Merton Russell-Cotes, and has remained in the collection of the Russell-Cotes Art Gallery & Museum ever since.

What are the main types of adaptation in the eye?
- Together with the bleaching of a rod or cone pigment, merging of signals on ganglion cells are inhibited, reducing convergence.
- What is meant by 'alpha adaptation'?
- Alpha adaptation, "i.e.", rapid sensitivity fluctuations, is powered by nerve control.
- What is the difference between the two types of adaptation?
- The merging of signals by virtue of the diffuse ganglion cells, as well as horizontal and amacrine cells, allow a cumulative effect.
- Are there any other interesting aspects about this article?
- 
A: Thus that area of stimulation is inversely proportional to intensity of light, a strong stimulus of 100 rods equivalent to a weak stimulus of 1,000 rods.
