Vénus de Quinipily, Historic sculpture in Baud, France.
The granite statue represents a naked woman with hands on her chest, standing 2.2 meters tall on a pedestal near a monolithic basin.
The statue dates back to 49 BC, originally placed near a Roman camp in Castenec before being moved to its current location in 1696.
Latin inscriptions on the pedestal reference Caesar and Venus Victrix, connecting the statue to Roman heritage and historical significance.
The statue stands in a garden setting that remains accessible throughout the year, with specific visiting hours from May to October.
The statue was submerged twice in the Blavet River during the 1660s at the request of religious authorities but was recovered both times.
