Early Venus

The Image of the goddess Venus in the ancient myths are far from romantic. If you believe an earlier version of its origin, the goddess emerged from the sea foam, which was formed from the blood of castrated Uranus. In this myth Venus - goddess - was more the patron of spring and life, not the goddess of love. Early sculptures represent not a capricious beautiful woman, and a strong and powerful goddess, in whose hands the attributes of the Thais: a bouquet of flowers and a mirror. And the main difference is that in early depictions,Venus - goddess of love, wearing only one shoulder exposed.

This statue was discovered in 1820, one Greek peasant on the island of Milos. He wanted as profitable to sell his discovery and hid it in the paddock. There she found an officer of the French of Dumont Durville. The officer was educated enough to understand how the masterpiece is the statue of the Greek goddess of beauty and love. It is believed that this Venus - the goddess held in her hand an Apple, which she handed Paris.

The Officer tried to steal the statue, but the Turks soon discovered the loss. A scuffle ensued over a priceless sculpture. During the fight was lost and the hand of the goddess, which is not found to this day.

Assumptions about the location of the hands of the goddess

There is an assumption that the goddess Venus holding the Apple. But how, then, was situated her hand? But this theory was later rejected by scientists from France Raycom, which aroused even more interest to the ancient statue. It is believed that the statue of Venus is only one of several sculptural compositions. Many researchers supported this suggestion, believing that Venus was depicted together with Mars, God of war. In the nineteenth statue of the goddess tried to restore and even wanted to attach her wings.

And Now the goddess, surrounded by legends, is in the Louvre in a small room in the hall of antique art. The exhibits in this Department are not standing in the middle of the hall, so low is the sculpture of Venus is visible from afar. If you approach it closer, it seems that the rough surface of the goddess alive and warm.
