The statue is perfect for collectors of decorative items, especially those interested in sculptures and figurines. Its placement in any room would add a touch of elegance and sophistication. Made in Italy, this piece is a true work of art that will be appreciated by all who see it. In Greek mythology, Aphrodite was the goddess of love and beauty, while Dionysus was the god of wine and ecstacy. In Roman mythology it was Venus and Bacchus. Gino Ruggeri, one of the most well known sculptors in Italy, worked many years for Tito Bianchi in Bianchi's factory in Tuscany. He developed a means of mixing alabaster with resin to make it more durable and waterproof. Tito Bianchi sold his factory in 1987 to Amilcare Santini. The Santini family now control the rights to Ruggeri's works, so any work done past 1987 of the Ruggeri originals will be labeled with the Santini name, so this statue would predate 1987.
