Description
The goddess is wondering in mystery, her attitude a persistent enigma. The missing pieces of marble and absence of attributes made the restoration and identification of the statue difficult. A whole range of positions have been suggested: the style of her hair, her neutral facial expression, or face shape. She is popularly thought to represent Venus or Aphrodite, because of her youthful features and feminine beauty.
