Description
Radiant as silver moonlight, the goddess of love stands before us, displaying her beauty. Such an exquisite and delicate image was valued as a rare and costly treasure by the age that sculpted it, and those qualities remain undiminished by time. To the classical world the loveliness of Aphrodite was ageless and eternal, and this sculpture offers eloquent proof of that notion. - (FZ.132)
