Aphrodite untying her sandal

Part of the drapery behind is missing, and the right thigh near the right forearm has been damaged. There are root marks on the surfaces, which are otherwise well preserved. The goddess is balanced on her right leg, which is partly bent. Stooping slightly, she lifts her foot in order to adjust her sandal. A himation, on her left shoulder, fell down her back and was carried over her right thigh, where a fragment of it is preserved. The back of the figure is less carefully worked than in front. The folds of the drapery are sharply cut with a drill in the hard stone.
