Allard Pierson Museum Aphrodite mirror

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The handle of this mirror is the goddess Aphrodite, a logical choice for an object where beauty is the central theme. The goddess is accompanied by two flying Erotes, gods of love. Surrounding the mirror flowers and pigeons adorn it, they are symbols befitting Aphrodite. Bronze, Peloponnesos (?), c. 460 BC (inv. 566)
Nederlands: Bij deze bronzen Spiegel vormt de godin Aphrodite het handvat, een logische keuze bij een voorwerp waarin de schoonheid centraal staat. De godin wordt vergezeld door twee vliegende eroten, liefdesgoden. Rond de spiegel zelf zijn bloemen en duiven als versiering aangebracht, symbolen die passen bij Aphrodite. Brons, Peloponnesos (?), ca. 460 v. Chr. (inv. 566)
