"Callipygian," a sculpture depicting Venus admiring her reflection, derives its name from the Greek for "of the beautiful buttocks." This artwork, originally placed in Nero's Domus Aurea in Rome, was considered so sensuous that it was moved to a secret cabinet with other risqué pieces when relocated to Naples in 1802. Despite its provocative nature, the sculpture remains a testament to Venus's legendary beauty.
The late Hellenistic original of "Callipygian" was once the centerpiece of a pool. Its depiction of Venus, believed to surpass mortal women in beauty, is renowned for its graceful portrayal. Despite the controversy surrounding its sensuality, the sculpture continues to captivate with its timeless elegance. Bring back this beauty in your garden with another quality statue from Toscano!
