Birth of Venus

Near the island of Kythera, Aphrodite, the daughter of Uranus, was born from the snow-white foam of the sea waves. A light, caressing breeze brought her to the island of Cyprus. There, young Ora were surrounded by the goddess of love who emerged from the sea waves. They clothed her in golden-weaved clothes and crowned her with a wreath of fragrant flowers. Wherever Aphrodite did not step, flowers flourished there. The whole air was full of fragrance. Eros and Gimeroth led the wondrous goddess to Olympus. The gods greeted her loudly. Since then, the golden Aphrodite, forever young, the most beautiful of the goddesses, has always lived among the gods of Olympus. (N.A.Kun "Legends and myths of ancient Greece")
