Aphrodite of Knidos Statue Details:
The Aphrodite of Knidos statue is an ancient Greek sculpture of the goddess Aphrodite, created by Praxiteles of Athens around the 4th century BCE. It is one of the earliest life-size representations of the female nude in Greek history, demonstrating an alternative idea of the male heroic nude. Prior to this time, Greek god statues had been dominated by nude male figures. This famous Greek statue of Aphrodite of Praxitus is nude. She is reaching for a bath towel while covering her pubic area, which in turn leaves her breasts exposed.
Aphrodite of Knidos is the most famous artwork of Praxiteles, and perhaps one of the most famous sculptures of classical Greece. Contemporaries such as Pliny praised the sculpture as “the finest not only among the works of Praxiteles, but among those of the whole world.” The work inspired artists for centuries, from Roman times to the Renaissance. The original Greek sculpture no longer exists; however, many Roman reproductions of this influential work of art still exist.
