Konica Minolta Recreates the Arms on the Venus de Milo



Konica Minolta recently took years of research in the history of the statue of Venus de Milo and in 3-D imaging to recreate what the statue of Venus de Milo. They used a digitizer equipped with a laser and figured out that the right arm of the goddess was lowered across the torso with the right hand resting on the raised left knee so the sliding drapery wrapped around the hips and legs could be held in place. The steps of the recreation can be found in the following link.
