The Knidian Aphrodites
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing various perspectives from which Praxiteles' nude and her effects are studied. The ancient Greeks had a god or goddess for every reason, many of which were personified in statuary which was then located in the various temples built in honor of these forms of deity. Study of these sculptures as art generally are limited to description and historical influences on later works, but at least one author wonders why we do not simply appreciate the Knidian Aphrodite for the beauty that she is. One common feature of all studies of the Knidian Aphrodite is that it was then and remains the standard by which all views of female beauty is portrayed. Bibliography lists 7
sources.
