Fabulous Vintage Sculpture of Botticelli's Venus w/ Display Pillar

  • $495.00


This large and beautiful statue is based on Sandro Botticelli's iconic "Birth of Venus" painting, made circa late 1400s. This image of Venus has been reproduced countless times, and while undoubtedly kitschy, this is one of the nicer renditions - in our humble (and totally unbiased, of course) opinion. Made of plaster and likely imported from Italy, these detailed pieces are hand-decorated with cream paint and green/gold tones to give it an aged look. Both statue and pillar bear their original "Woodwards" department store tags, dating them to the late 1960s/early 1970s, when Hollywood Regency was all the rage and an item like this would have been the centre of attention in a room. 55"H overall, Venus is 26"H and the display pillar is 29"H, $495
