Venus Frigida[1] (1611) is a painting by Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640), located in het Royal Museum of Fine Arts, Antwerp.

Tip of the hat to Brigitte Dekeyzer, who was nice enough to correct me in some aspects (drolleries and miniatures) of the Medieval visual arts.

The Venus Frigida painting was featured in her review of my book De geschiedenis van de erotiek: van holbewoner tot Markies de Sade , published in De Leeswolf, October 2011.

The frigid woman is a powerful trope in fiction. An example sentence such as "Oh honey, I have a headache" suffices to illustrate the familiarity of the theme. Princess Marie Bonaparte, the woman who had her clitoris transplanted is a tragic victim of that trope, and of Victorian positivism in general.
