The marble Venus de' Medici was one of the most celebrated of all antiquities, considered by many to be the ideal image of female beauty. Its early history is unknown, but by 1638 it was in the Villa Medici in Rome and by 1688 it had been transferred to the Tribuna of the Uffizi in Florence (Haskell and Penny, loc. cit.)
