Venus of Arles Head

thingiverse

The Venus of Arles stands at an impressive 6.4 feet high, a magnificent sculpture of the goddess Venus housed within the esteemed Musée du Louvre. Carved from exquisite Hymettus marble, this masterpiece dates back to the final century before Christ. My digital model is meticulously crafted from a 1:1 plaster cast of the head, requiring an astonishing 10 hours to complete the intricate process. The resulting STL file is an exact replica, measuring approximately 15 inches tall, allowing you to scale it to your desired size. To ensure successful printing, be sure to add support for the chin, hair, and nose areas, as these features are delicate and prone to distortion. I hope you find this digital representation of the Venus of Arles to your liking!
