Real-world information
Venus de Milo is a marble sculpture thought to be crafted some time between 130 and 100 BC by Alexandros of Antioch. As one of the most famous works of Greek sculpture, itis commonly believed that the statue depicts Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love and beauty.
The statue was originally found broken in pieces within the ancient city ruins of Milos. The two pieces that remained mostly intact were the upper and lower body. Discovered with the two pieces were portions of the upper arm, and a left hand holding an apple. The original pose of the statue remains a mystery.
