Marble statue of Aphrodite

Marble statue of Aphrodite. Culture: Greek. Dimensions: H. 32", W. 9 1/2", D. 6 1/2. Date: 2nd century B.C..
The goddess of love stands in an exaggerated hipshot pose. She wears a thin chiton girded just below the breasts, and her himation (cloak), which must have been draped over the missing left arm, falls in thick folds between her legs. This figure is one of the many variants created in the Hellenistic period of a statue type known as the Tiepolo Aphrodite. A major over-life-sized version and numerous statuettes have been found in Athens; many examples also come from the island of Rhodes.
