The sculpture we offer is an interpretation of the famous Aphrodite of Knidos, Cnidus or Cnidian Aphrodite. It is one of the most renowned sculptures by the Greek sculptor Praxiteles, created in Athens around 360 BC, depicting the goddess Aphrodite, known as Venus in Rome, emerging from the bath.

The Venus or Aphrodite of Cnidus is a statue attributed to the Greek sculptor Praxiteles, dating back to the 4th century BC. The statue broke artistic conventions of the time, being the first representation of female nudity in Greek art.

This sculpture was placed in the sanctuary of Aphrodite on the island of Cnidus, where it became a sensation and attracted numerous visitors. It is said that its realism and beauty were so compelling that some admirers of the statue even fell in love with it, as recounted by Pliny the Elder. This work has had a significant influence on art, considered one of the standards for the artistic representation of the female body. Its legacy endures through the centuries as one of the most emblematic sculptures of antiquity.
