Aphrodite

The Goddess of Love, the Greeks called her Aphrodite and the Romans worshiped her as Venus. In legend, she sprang full-grown from the sea near Cythera. In fact, "Aphros" is Greek for foam. From Cythera, Zephyrus, the west wind, carried her on a shell to Cyprus. There, the Hours met her, clothed her, and brought her to the gods.

This piece is oil on canvas.
