The Venus of Willendorf is an 11.1-centimetre-tall (4.4 in) Venus figurine discovered in Willendorf, Austria. It is believed to have been crafted between 30,000 and 25,000 BCE, making it one of the world’s oldest known works of art.

It has been suggested that she is a fertility figure, a good-luck totem, a mother goddess symbol, or an aphrodisiac made by men for the appreciation of men. The figurine is now in the Natural History Museum in Vienna, Austria.
