Afrodites fødsel 1860

"Afrodites fødsel" (The Birth of Aphrodite) is a delicate pencil drawing by Danish artist Lorenz Frølich, created in 1860. The drawing depicts the Greek goddess Aphrodite emerging from a seashell, surrounded by a wreath of foliage. Frølich's meticulous detail and graceful lines capture the essence of this classic myth, which has been a subject of artistic inspiration for centuries. The drawing, part of the collection of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, offers a glimpse into the artist's creative process and the enduring appeal of classical mythology.
