Group of Aphrodite, Pan and Eros, Hellenistic marble statue in National Archaeological Museum, Greece

The marble sculpture portrays Aphrodite defending herself from Pan while Eros pulls his horn, creating a dynamic interaction between the three figures.

The statue was discovered in 1904 within the Hall of the Guild of the Poseidoniasts on Delos island, where merchants from Beirut gathered.

The inscription at the base reveals that Dionysius from Berytos dedicated this sculpture to ancestral gods for his family's benefit.

The sculpture measures 155 centimeters in height and stands in Room 30 of the National Archaeological Museum of Athens.

The statue required restoration work to reattach multiple broken parts, including Aphrodite's right arm and Pan's horns, while Eros's right arm remains missing.
