Bronzino's complex allegory Venus, Cupid, Folly, and Time offers up such an iconographic puzzle that there is little doubt that he intended to leave the viewer with a sense of ambiguity. The identities of the people in the picture still have not been universally agreed upon and the odd figures all have hidden moral meanings. These two factors make deciding what the pictures intent was difficult to decipher and it may vary from person to person.
