Torso of Venus // Aristide Maillol // 1920




This sculpture shows the famous contrapposto pose the represented more movement and personality with sculptures once artists started to sculpt this way. This is a sculpture of the torso of Venus who is a Greek Goddess. Maillol was focused mainly on the voluptuous curves of Venus than the traditional, full body sculpture that had been done in the past.
