About the Item
A striking and alluring 19th century French Grand Tour cast bronze sculpture depicting the Ancient Greek goddess Aphrodite, and named for her Roman counterpart, Venus. The original was discovered in 1820 on the island of Milos, hence the name Venus de Milo, and is now housed in the Louvre in Paris.
The Grand Tour became a right-of-passage during the 17th-19th centuries for the upper class serving to educate men and boys in classical art and architecture found throughout the European continent. Bronzes of this scale were brought back to England as souvenirs. This piece is marked "FRANCE" on the backside, and "Musée de Louvre" near the right foot.
