Crouching Venus

:''This article discusses the type itself: see links within it for specific instances of the type.''
The ''Crouching Venus'' is a Hellenistic model of Venus surprised at her bath. Venus crouches with her right knee close to the ground, turns her head to the right and, in most versions, reaches her right arm over to her left shoulder to cover her breasts.〔Some of the many copies have significant variants in the upper body and the position of the arms.〕 To judge by the number of copies that have been excavated on Roman sites in Italy and France, this variant on Venus seems to have been popular.
A number of examples of the ''Crouching Venus'' in prominent collections have influenced modern sculptors since Giambologna and have been drawn by artists since Martin Heemskerck, who made a drawing of the Farnese ''Crouching Venus'' that is now in Naples.
==Attribution==
The model is often related to a corrupt passage in Pliny the Elder's ''Natural History'' (xxxvi.4), enumerating sculptures in the Temple of Jupiter Stator in the Portico of Octavia, near the Roman Forum; the text has been emended to a mention of ''Venerem lavantem sese Daedalsas, stantem Polycharmus'' ("Venus washing herself, of Daedalsas, (another ), standing, of Polycharmus"), recording a sculpture of a Venus who was not standing, by the otherwise unknown Doidalses or Daedalsas.〔The passage is interpreted in (''Monumenta Rariora'' ). Beyond Pliny's mention of this sculpture in the Temple of Jupiter Stator, only a ''Zeus Stratios'' in Nicomedia is known of "Doidalses", who, because of the Nicomedia location, would be a Bithynian sculptor of the 3rd century BCE (Haskell and Penny 1981:323, noting Lullies 1954). A marble statuette of the ''Zeus Stratios'' recovered at Camirus gives an approximation of the lost sculpture. Calling this model a "Doidalses Venus" creates avoidable problems.〕
