APHRODITE BUST - GODDESS OF LOVE Aphrodite is the Olympian goddess of love, beauty, sexual pleasure, and fertility. She is regularly attended by few of her children, the Erotes, who are capable of stirring up passion in both mortals and gods at the goddess will. Portrayed as both insatiable and unattainable, Aphrodite was born near the coast of Cythera out of the foam (aphros) Uranus castrated genitals created when they fell into the sea. Even though married to Hephaestus, she had affairs with all Olympians except Zeus and Hades, most famously with Ares, the god of war. She also had famous romances with two mortals, Anchises and Adonis. Her Roman equivalent is the goddess Venus. She is identified with the planet Venus.(01-042-A) Details: Condition: New, Handmade in Greece Material: Casting stone Height: 20 cm(7.8 inches) Width : 10 cm(3.9 inches) Length : 14 cm(5.5 inches) Weight : 2 kg
