Aphrodite
Aphrodite rises from the foam of the waves of the sea, enchanting
anyone who sees her and inciting feelings of love and lust
wherever she goes. She is a contender in the story of the
Golden Apples, when Paris chooses her as the fairest of the
three goddesses (the others were Hera and Athena) and Aphrodite
decides to "reward" him for giving her the Golden
Apple (the prototype of most modern awards) by giving him
the love of Helen of Troy, something of a mixed blessing that
led to the Trojan War. Cold-cast resin statue approx 11-1/4"
tall, in white finish.

Athena
Athena,
the Greek goddess of wisdom, war, the arts, industry, justice
and skill. She was the favorite child of Zeus. She had sprung
fully-grown out of her father’s head. Her mother was
Metis, goddess of wisdom and Zeus’ first wife. In
fear that Metis would bear a son mightier than himself.
Zeus swallowed her and she began to make a robe and helmet
for her daughter. The hammering of the helmet caused Zeus
great pain in the form of headaches and he cried out in
agony. Skilled Hephaestus ran to his father and split his
skull open and from it emerged Athena, fully grown and wearing
her mother’s robe and helmet. She is the virgin mother
of Erichthnonius. Classic depiction of Athena, with goldleaf
painted accents, and fine details thru-out this cold-cast
resin statue. Approx 12" tall.
