About the Item

Grand Tour Torso of Aphrodite/Venus After the Antiquity, 19th Century Marble Torso: 20 x 11 x 6 inches Including base: 22 inches high 43 lb. A "Torso of Aphrodite" refers to a sculpture depicting the upper body and legs of the Greek goddess Aphrodite, often in the nude or partially draped. These torsos are Roman copies of original Greek statues, typically of the Aphrodite Pontia-Euploia (Guardian of Sea Voyages) type. A prominent example is the "Aphrodite Torso" at the Detroit Institute of Arts, a marble sculpture dating to the 1st century CE, which is a Roman copy of the Venus Genetrix type.
