Statuette of Venus, 1st century B.C. Additional Info: Playing on the idea of the beauty of the goddess of love, many artists depicted Venus at her toilette: bathing, putting on jewelry, examining herself in a mirror, or, as here, tying a ribbon in her hair. This Roman statuette shows the goddess with her head tilted and her arms raised as she pulls a length of ribbon tight. Although most of the ribbon has broken away, one end still falls over her shoulder.
