Phryne, born c. 371 BC, was a courtesan woman of the ancient Greek era that inspired great artists, impressed great Athenian thinkers of her time. A self-made woman, and probably the richest of the era. She was also the model for a sculpture of Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty and sexual desire, created by her partner Praxiteles. She is best known for her trial for impiety, where she was defended by the orator Hypereides, and won her trial by baring her breasts.
