The
Callipygian Venus or
Venus Kallipygos, (
Greek:
Ἀφροδίτη Καλλίπυγος Aphrodite Kallipygos, "
Aphrodite of the Beautiful Buttocks"
[1]), is a type of nude female statue of the
Hellenistic era. In an example of
anasyrma, it depicts a partially-draped woman,
[2] raising her light
peplos[3] to uncover her
hips and
buttocks, and looking back and down over her shoulder, perhaps to evaluate them.
希 腊的爱神？像中，专门有一尊表示臀部美丽的，名叫Aphrodite kallipygos。Aphrodite是爱神的名字，通行的译法是阿福罗提忒，而kalli是希腊文的美字，pygos则是屁股之意义，有人将这美臀 的雕像直译为佳丽屁股，果然音义巧合，真是聪明。(潘光旦譯)
