These are said to be very early bronzes of Aphrodite Anadyomene.

They are of course nothing of the kind.

They are all pretty bad forgeries.

This is what an early  bronze Aphrodite Anadyomene looks like.

Uglier than the Thracian Venus Anadyomene!

 

I will ask.........

 

Hello,

Who or what does this statue represent?

Are you sure it's genuine? Does not look like bronze and it's unusual for a Roman bronze of this size to be hollow.

Regards,

B.

 

I bought it as an antiquity. I offer a money back guarantee; I wish I knew more about Roman mythology so I can't help you with the representation. thanks for your interest. Peace, tom

 

Hello Tom,

That's honest of you...but your website says:

Nile Art Gallery specializes and deals only in Egyptian art: Pharaonic; Greco-Roman; Coptic and Islamic Art. We have over 25 years experience in the antiquity business and are true experts in the field

This piece you are listing is definitely not ancient.

Regards,

B.
