Original artwork description:
Which goddess is the most beautiful? Paris had to make the decision: Aphrodite, Athene or Hera?
The artist was inspired by this episode of Greek mythology when he painted 3 beautiful ladies: the birth of Venus from Botticelli, the venus from Milet and the modern Venus Marilyn Monroe.
Paris' apple was golden, the artist's apple is quite normal, to whom it will be given?
It is in today's manner like casting for a Venus-performance.
The oil painting on canvas from 1984 was immediately sold. Now the artist over-painted and varied a print with oil colours.
This original oil on paper is titled, dated and signed on the front, additionally on the back.
