Ares and Aphrodite Statue by Canova
Venus (Greek godess name, Aphrodite) is the Roman Goddess of Love and Beauty. Mars (Greek god name Ares) is the Roman God of War. Mars is a God of giant stature whose cruel and war-like nature is despised by all his peers, and yet he succumbs to the charms of Venus. Maybe this is why John Gray titled his book "Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus." The Greek god's love affair is legendary in classical Greek mythology. There have been many pictures of and artworks based on Aphrodite the goddess, but this work of Antonio Canova's is from the last few years of his life. It illustrates his artistry of expressiveness under the restraint of classic lines. He was the foremost exponent of the Neo-Classicism.
This Ares and Aphrodite Statue by Canova is made from museum resin, in a white finish, measures 15"H x 7"L x 3.5"D. 64141-155

Give Me a Thousand Kisses Gift Box
Seduce your mate with this ancient bit of Roman poetry. The phrase on the top, “Da Mi Basia Mille,” translates as “Give Me a Thousand Kisses”. It is taken from the poetry of Gaius Valerius Catallus, a well-known and loved Roman poet from Verona, Italy (c. 84 BC-54 BC). He wrote a passionate poem to his love Lesbia. Here is a translation of an excerpt: Let us live, my Lesbia, and let us love / And let us count the comments of censuring old men as one copper / Suns are able to set and rise again / For us, when the brief light sets once and for all / There is an endless night which must be slept through. / Give me a thousand kisses, then a hundred, / Then another thousand, then a second hundred, / Then, constantly, another thousand, then a hundred, / Then, when we will have done that many thousands of times, / We will confuse the count, so that we (ourselves) don’t know.... In tribute to his timeless words, “Catallus, a Roman Poet 84 BC“ appears on the side of the box. Made from resin, white with gray wash finish, 3.5”H x 5.25”W x 5.25”L. 53601-123
