The voluptuous goddess depicted nude, standing with her weight on her right leg, the left leg slightly advanced, her upper torso subtly angled forward, her right arm once lowered with the hand covering the pudenda, adorned with an armband on her left bicep, the remains of her fingers and a partially-preserved strut on her thighs

Private Collection, Brussels, acquired from the above, prior to 1977; thence by descent to the current owner.

專家說明

The position of the arms of the Venus presented here suggests she is a version of the Praxiteles statue of Aphrodite of Knidos. She closely recalls the "Colonna" type, depicted nude, who leans on her himation which drapes over a hydria. See fig. 9 in C. Kondoleon et al., Aphrodite and the Gods of Love.
