This exquisite 18th-century copper engraving, titled Venus, showcases the goddess as she emerges from the sea, modestly covering herself in a classical pose. Drawn by Adam Buck and engraved by Roberts & Ziegler, the work was published by William Holland on Oxford Street, London, in 1799. Accompanied by a poetic verse, the engraving captures Venus as an emblem of beauty and spiritual love rather than physical allure. Hand-colored with delicate watercolor accents, this piece reflects the grace and elegance of classical mythology, preserved in its original condition.
