About the Item
18th Century Continental School
Bronze Sculpture of Aphrodite, c. 18th Century
25-3/4 in. h. x 11 in. w. x 9 in. d., without Base
1-1/4 in. h. x 8 in. dia., base
A wonderfully patinated Grand Tour bronze, inspired by the original sculpture from the Hellenistic period of Aphrodite untying her sandal. The austere style of this reproduction is characteristic of 18th Century bronze sculpture.
The motif of Venus, or Aphrodite, untying her sandal, developed from a Greek original from the Hellenistic period. Several antique interpretations are known, such as a small bronze, probably from Syria, in the Louvre Museum (inv. no. Br 4417) and a marble statuette in the British Museum (inv. no. 2000,0522.1). Sculptors in the age of Neoclassicism also took up the theme, particularly in the mid-19th century, and several versions of the present model are known from different sculptors, including Ivan Petrovich Vitali (1852) and Johann Ludwig von Hofer (1856).

- Bufo Contemporary Bronze Sculpture Nude Boy Marble Stone Male FigureBy Wim van der KantLocated in Utrecht, NLBufo Contemporary Bronze Sculpture Nude Boy Marble Stone Male Figure Wim van der Kant (1949, Kampen) is a selftaught artist. Next to his busy profession as a teacher at a high school, he intensively practises his profession as a sculptor. Only when his work would measure up to his own standards, he decided to present it to the rest of the world. In 1995, he exhibited for the first time with Morren Galleries. Van der Kant desires to sculpt young people who still stand uninhibited and curiously in life. The reason he chooses to sculpt boys is, because he is one himself, this way the subject is closer to him. The anatomy of his figures testify of perfectionism. Van der Kant's subjects show similarities with the sculptures from the Greek and Roman antiquity...Category
