This handmade figurine is a replica inspired by the Revadim Asherah figüre (venus), a rare cult object from the southern Levant, associated with Asherah, a central female deity in Canaanite belief.

What distinguishes this figure is the presence of two infant figures within her womb, widely interpreted as the twin gods Shahar and Shalem, deities of dawn and dusk in Canaanite mythology. The infants are depicted reaching toward Asherah’s breasts as if nursing. This striking composition combines pregnancy and breastfeeding in a single image, uniting interior and exterior views of the body and emphasizing themes of fertility, sustenance, and divine continuity.

The original artifact was discovered at Tel Revadim (Israel) and is now housed in the Israel Museum, under the care of the Israel Antiquities Authority. It is generally understood as a domestic devotional object, reflecting household religious practice rather than formal temple worship, and stands as a key example of Canaanite religious art.

This replica is cast in resin stone, entirely handmade, and finished with an antique patina. An alternative version is gold leaf coated and aged, offering a different visual interpretation while preserving the ancient character of the piece. A chrome pin embedded in the back allows the sculpture to be wall-mounted so that it sits flush against the surface.

This work is intended for viewers familiar with ancient Near Eastern religion, Canaanite mythology, Venus figurines, and symbolic representations of the female body.
