The Birth of Venus

The Birth of Venus is a myth from ancient Greek tradition, later immortalized in art.

Venus (Aphrodite) is born from sea foam after the god Uranus is cast into the ocean. She emerges fully grown, symbolizing divine beauty and love. Carried ashore by the winds, she arrives on a shell at the island of Cyprus.

The story represents the birth of beauty, desire, and creative force from chaos.
