The Aphrodite of Cnidus was sculpted by the renowned ancient Greek artist Praxiteles around the 4th century BCE. This famous statue is celebrated for its depiction of the goddess of love and beauty in a naturalistic and sensual pose. It was one of the first full-scale representations of a nude female figure in Western art, greatly influencing later artistic representations of women. The statue became a significant cultural icon in ancient Greece and was highly revered in its time.

So, he made a different statue, a little less beautiful than the other one to put in Aphrodite's temple. Then, Aphrodite saw the love he had for the statue and she made the statue come alive.
