- LOVELY & IMPORTANT ROMAN SILVER STATUETTE
LOVELY & IMPORTANT ROMAN SILVER STATUETTE OF VENUSRoman, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to early 3rd century CE. An exquisite statuette cast from 70% to 75% silver depicting Venus (Greek Aphrodite), the goddess of love, romance, and passion. Venus stands with her left leg extended and wears a luxurious chiton that is draped across her left shoulder. Her right hand is held atop her thigh as her left hand grasps her breast to keep her flowing garment from falling. Her classic visage is defined by sensitive almond-shaped eyes under heavy brows, a petite nose above full lips, rounded cheeks, and a scallop-adorned fillet, all beneath a wavy, centrally parted coiffure which culminates in a bun on the verso. The importance of this piece stems from its large size - similar examples tend to be smaller - and how it is made from silver rather than bronze or another, less opulent material. An exceedingly rare and exemplary statuette of Venus! Size: 1.25" W x 4.7" H (3.2 cm x 11.9 cm); 7.25" H (18.4 cm) on included custom stand; silver quality: 70% to 75%
Venus (Aphrodite in the Greek pantheon) has inspired countless depictions throughout the history of artistic creation. Among the most famous are Greek Attic sculptor Praxiteles' "Aphrodite of Knidos" (ca. 360 to 330 BCE), the equally famous "Lely's Venus" (ca. 100 to 199 CE), Alexandros of Antioch's "Venus de Milo" (ca. 130 to 100 BCE), the Renaissance artist Sandro Botticelli's masterful painting "Birth of Venus" (1484 to 1486 CE), and Baroque artist Peter Paul Rubens' equally masterful painting "Judgement of Paris" (ca. 1636).

- SPLENDID ROMAN MARBLE STATUETTE NUDE
SPLENDID ROMAN MARBLE STATUETTE NUDE VENUS PUDICARoman, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to 3rd century CE. What a knockout! Finely carved in the round, a marble sculpture of Venus, the Roman goddess of love, sensitively depicted in the Pudica stance, similar to that of the Capitoline Venus yet with a striking, doe-eyed expression. The graceful deity stands contrapposto with her weight shifted to her left leg and her right knee gently bent as she tenderly turns to her left. Hair centrally parted and pulled back in a low-set chignon, her sweet visage is comprised of huge, amygdaloid eyes with prominent lids, a naturalistic nose, full lips, and a narrow chin, all crowned by a braided headband with a frontal bow. Shown nude, her soft flesh is smoothly rendered, displaying the voluptuous curves of her hourglass figure with shapely thighs, broad hips, and ample breasts. However, the youthful beauty strives to cover herself, holding her right hand over her breast and her left at her pudenda; a pose that simultaneously shields and highlights her bareness. A truly stunning embodiment of the Classical aesthetic! Size: 2.5" W x 7.3" H (6.4 cm x 18.5 cm); 9.6" H (24.4 cm) on included custom stand.
This type of sensuous pose had been favored by earlier Hellenistic sculptors, i.e., Alexandros of Antioch's "Venus de Milo" (130 to 100 BCE) thought to be inspired by Praxiteles' entirely nude the "Aphrodite of Knidos" (ca. 360 to 330 BCE). Indeed, nude or partially nude statues of Venus/Aphrodite made quite a statement in their day (as well as beyond) because they were among the first sculptures to portray a goddess in the nude, a practice that previously had only been reserved for males. Women had been depicted in the nude on earlier Greek pottery paintings; however, those women were typically slave girls or courtesans rather than deities. As an image of a sensual Venus, this example would have been regarded as quite erotic during antiquity. Speaking of the Aphrodite of Knidos for example, Pliny observed that some men were "overcome with love for the statue." Venus/Aphrodite has inspired countless seductive sculptural masterworks throughout art history, among the most famous, Attic sculptor Praxiteles's "Aphrodite of Knidos" (ca. 360 to 330 BCE), "Lely's Venus" (ca. 100 to 199 CE), a Roman copy of a Greek original which is now lost) named for the painter Sir Peter Lily, and Alexandros of Antioch's "Venus de Milo" (130 to 100 BCE).
