Answer 1

The soldier is either triumphant and returning home to some carnal indulgence much to the dismay of the cherubs who are trying to stop him from doing so. Or the soldier is a century who should be standing guard of Rome and the cherubs are protecters of the empire. The rubenesque woman represents all that is evil and sinful in the world which is the mentality Rome is trying to avoid.

Answer 2

it looks like the painting is in 1st 2nd and aerial perspective which is really hard to do

it's pretty monotone using warm colors which all seem to be close to red or yellow

but they made the naked woman the focal point by making her very pale and noticeable, because as you can see even the small angels are a darker color and give somewhat of a warm feel

its a pretty nice peice except for the fact that the white w***e is on a mission to make me vomit :-D
