This statue illustrates Mars with wreath over Venus' head grasping her closely and preparing to kiss. He is proclaiming his love by "crowning" her with a laurel wreath. Venus, the love goddess, has her attendant putti (winged babies) around her legs urging her on with the lovemaking. It is a graceful sculpture influenced by Greek and Roman originals but most likely from the Neoclassical era circa late 1700's or 1800's. In the Neoclassical style, artists beckoned back to the classical perfection of ancient Greek and Roman times with their idealized body forms and perfected physiques. This is a romantic sculpture for your beloved special birthday, anniversary or wedding gift.
Mars and Venus Kissing with Putti Statue is made from resin with 24kt gold foil inlay details on the putti wings and wreath. Height is approximately 12.75"H.
