A marble statue created by a sculptor of Antioch on the Maeander River is today known as the Venus de Milo at the Louvre Museum in Paris; it is one of the most famous works of ancient Greek sculpture.

Created sometime between 130 and 100 BCE, it is believed to depict Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love and beauty (Venus to the Romans).

It is slightly larger than life size at two hundred and three centimeters (six feet eight inches) high.

Part of an arm and the original plinth were lost following its discovery.

From an inscription that was on its plinth, it is thought to be the work of Alexandros of Antioch.
