Framed Aphrodite Art

“The judgment of Paris” myth, including Aphrodite, Athena and Hera, was painted in many different styles by many famous painters. Peter Paul Rubens was so amazed by that myth, that he portrayed it in two pictures through a span of a few years. One of those pictures was ordered to be burned for its immodesty, but that order was never carried out. Her beauty was so unreal, that even the famous Salvador Dali found inspiration in her and presented her face in the image of his surrealistic landscapes. Paintings of Aphrodite are valued by people that really want to see the immense beauty of women presented in regular settings. The beauty and the desire that Aphrodite spread around was captivating to the beholders, so she was the first thing of inspiration for Ancient Greeks that were creating with love. There are a lot of her statues around the world, because people are always enchanted when seeing a representation of something beautiful.
