From the Getty Museum record
Fragmentary statuette of Aphrodite Anadyomene (Aphrodite combing her hair). The head, arms, and legs below the knees are missing. There are traces of a support on her left thigh and small strut on her upper hip. There is another support, probably for her hair, on her upper left arm. The back is more schematic than the front. She would have originally stood with her weight on her left leg, the right leg relaxed and slightly forward, and her arms lifted up to hold her hair.
