Robert Graves writes in The Great Mother: " When analytical psychology speaks of the primordial image or archetype of the Great Mother, it is referring, not to any concrete image existing in space and time, but to an inward image at work in the human psyche. The symbolic expression of this psychic phenomenon is to be found in the figures of the Great Goddess represented in the myths and artistic creations of mankind."  This wonderful collection of Paleolithic Mother Goddess Figures are cast from a first generation copy of the original artifacts, cast in gypsum, with authentic looking patinas which most resemble the original figures. This Venus figures in this collection, either singly or as a group would be most welcome additions to any home, office, or healing space. They would grace any altar or meditation room with the presence of the Great Mother, offering us her healing energies and assisting us to cultivate compassion, nurturing & the creative Life Force within us or those with whom She resonates.
