Venus Anadyomene is an
oil-on-canvas painting by
Titian, dating to around 1520. It depicts the Greek goddess
Venus rising from the sea and wringing her hair, with a shell visible at the bottom left, taken from a description of Venus by the Greek poet
Hesiod in which she was born fully-grown from a shell. The wringing of her hair is a direct imitation of
Apelles's lost masterwork, also called
Venus Anadyomene. The painting is in good condition and achieved public ownership in 2003 when it was purchased from
Francis Egerton, 7th Duke of Sutherland. It is now in the collection of the
National Galleries of Scotland.Painting credit:
Titian
