Considered from the later 1500s as the epitome of female beauty, the Medici Venus was frequently copied, normally as full-length reductions. Unusual in being full-size and incorporating drapery, this bust may have been displayed alongside some genuine ancient bronze or marble statues, in a grandiose entrance hall or library. reference term-106494 adlib-term-106494 83ed4379-54ab-3a41-952b-6419ac4b66ab 18th Century, Early reference term-106508 adlib-term-106508 f7f1399b-d092-3a3d-8f96-c3aee3ad8fd5 literal Italy Italy country Florence reference term-40365 adlib-term-40365 d79c75c2-da7b-3187-918e-f7a374e04005 bronze Depth cm 27 Height cm 68 Width cm 50 reference term-23035 adlib-term-23035 f9693b6b-2e4a-3666-acf8-973403f65fce bust reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum
