Aphrodite Goddess Pan and Eros Cast Marble Sculpture Statue Museum Copy 13.4 in

“Aphrodite and Pan” is called a marble complex, which represents a cheerful scene, with Pan awkwardly approaching the goddess Aphrodite, who is preparing for her bath. Something that can be seen from the scarf with which she has gathered her hair – while Love in the form of a small child, drives him away.This is one of the best known and most characteristic representations of the goddess Aphrodite assaulted by the goat-legged Pan. The group stands on its original square base, which bears a votive inscription. The naked goddess attends to hide her putenda, while threatening to strike Pan with her sandal. Little Eros hovers over her shoulder, playfully seizing Pan΄s horn in an attempt to help his mother ward off the annoying creature. This lighthearted and picturesque theme places the composition in the so-called Hellenistic «Rococo style›. Aphrodite΄s hairstyle and the anatomy of the three figures are meticulously rendered, while the final polishing of the marble makes the surface wonderfully smooth. This group was probably made in Attica, although the possibility of a Delian workshop cannot be overruled. HANDMADE IN GREECEDimensions (approximately):Height: 34 cm (13.4 inches)Width: 20 cm (7.87 inches) Weight:  2,1 kg (4.63 lb) Material and manufacturing process: cast marbleCast marble statues are made from a composite material in which natural crushed Greek marble stone is mixed with a small amount of resin which acts as a glue.
