Only rediscovered in 1820, the Venus de Milo rapidly became one of the best-known statues in the world.
Only rediscovered in 1820, the Venus de Milo rapidly became one of the best-known statues in the world. Should we see her as an icon of classical culture or an armless fragment uncovered at just the right time to win an over-blown reputation? This talk explores the enigmatic statue in the larger context of classical art, as a representation of the goddess Venus and in terms of discovery, reception and reputation.
