Description
After Antonio Canova "Venus Italica" Sculpture - (8.8lbs)

The Venus Italica Statue draws inspiration from the renowned marble sculpture commissioned by Napoleon Bonaparte and crafted by the esteemed Italian sculptor Antonio Canova around 1802. This artwork was intended to serve as a replacement for the Venus de Medici, an ancient Greek sculpture that had been taken to the Louvre under Napoleon's orders in 1802. However, following Napoleon's abdication in 1815, the Venus de Medici was required to be returned to Italy. The Venus Italica Statue captures the essence and beauty of Canova's masterpiece, embodying the grace and elegance that have made Venus a timeless symbol of love and beauty.
