18+ AimeeMaroux, Have a beautiful Day of Aphrodite aka Venus' Day aka Frigg's Day aka Friday 🌹
This statuette is a variant of the #Aphrodite Anadyomene type. Her eyes are inlaid with glass paste. The pose may have been inspired by a famous painting of Aphrodite Anadyomene by Apelles, court painter of Alexander the Great.
🏛️ Aphrodite bronze, 2nd-1st century BCE. Today in the MET, New York.
