Aphrodite large bust
Aphrodite ("risen from sea-foam") is the Greek goddess of love and beauty. She was also called Kypris
or Cytherea after her alleged birth-places in Cyprus and Cythera, respectively. The island of Cythera was
a center of her cult. Aphrodite was born of the sea foam after Cronus cut off Uranus' genitals and the
elder god's blood and semen dropped on the sea, where they began to foam. She was associated with
Hesperia and frequently accompanied by the Oreads, nymphs of the mountains. Aphrodite was
associated with, and often depicted with dolphins, doves, swans, pomegranates and lime trees. Her
Roman analogue is Venus.
