The Graces with Cupid’s Arrow
This marble statue was made in 1864 by Georg Christian Freund under the supervision of Herman Wilhelm Bissen, after an original plaster cast from 1842 by the Danish neoclassical sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen (1770-1844).
The work is currently kept at the Thorvaldsen Museum, Copenhagen, Denmark.
I made this statue from a free 3D model I found on the Internet. I reduced significantly the number of faces, built an UV map, normal map and other textures.
I added in the download file a pedestal, in the Ionic order, I made specially for this sculpture.
Happy Simming !

The Philosopher’s Stone
Hi everyone!
I converted the Philosopher’s Stone from TS3 Supernatural. Unfortunately, this version is only a decorative object and doesn’t have any magic abilities. Well, it’s still a nice decorative object.

XVIIth c. Vase
Hi everyone!
This is a remake of a vase I made for TS3 in 2015 (already seven years!) . The old one is really ugly compared to the new one… I guess I’ve made a lot of progress in CC creation ^^’.
Anonymous sculptor and bronzier. This vase, which forms a pair with another identical vase, from the XVIIth century is currently kept at the Palace of Versailles, in France.

The Supper at the House of Simon the Pharisee
The meal at the house of Simon the Pharisee is an episode in the life of Christ reported by the four Gospels but with great differences on the place, the personality of the woman, the name of the protester and the words of Jesus.
Painted by the Italian artist Paolo Veronese near 1572 for the refectory of a Venetian monastery, the painting was given by the Venetian Republic to Louis XIV of France in 1664. It is currently on display at the Hercule Room at Versailles.

Hedges & Topiaries from TS2
Hi everyone!
I wanted to convert these hedges and topiaries from TS2 longtime ago but I was not satisfied. Now I am
I kept original textures (first swatch) and added a new swatch more in TS4 spirit.
I removed a lot of useless faces because I enabled the “Double Sided” option for the textures.

Ganymede Offering the Cup
In Greek mythology, Ganymede is a young shepherd renowned for his beauty. Zeus, transformed into an eagle, kidnapped him and installed him on Olympus to make him his lover. Zeus granted him the function of cupbearer to the gods, which he withdrew from Hebe, who had fallen awkwardly during a banquet.
This marble statue, made in 1804 by the Danish neoclassical sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen, is currently kept at the Thorvaldsen Museum, Copenhagen, Denmark.

Psyche
In Greek mythology, Psyche was deified as the goddess of the soul by Zeus after multiple trials initiated by Aphrodite, jealous of her beauty and upset about her relationship with her son, Eros.
One of Psyche’s tasks was to retrieve a piece of the beauty of Persephone, Queen of the Underworld. Curious, Psyche opened the box Persephone gave her. The statue of Thorvaldsen describes this moment. A vapor rose from it and Psyche fell into a deep sleep. Eros came to her rescue and managed to wake her up.
This marble statue, realized by the Danish neoclassicist sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen in 1806, is currently kept at the Thorvaldsen Museum, Copenhagen, Denmark.

Portrait of Louis XV, King of France
This official portrait was commissioned from Hyacinthe Rigaud by the Regent, Philippe d'Orléans, in 1715 and completed in 1717. Even before the young king, then aged 5, was consecrated, he is represented wearing the mantle of the conventional coronation. The iconography is dependent on the model left by the portrait of Louis XIV painted by the same artist in 1701. It affirms the continuity of a French monarchy where, according to the ancient adage, “the King never dies”.

Two Neoclassical Paintings
Hi everyone!
I made these two neoclassical paintings to use them in our Sims’ house
- The Origin of Painting or Dibutades Drawing
The myth tells that the daughter of Butades, a Corinthian potter, smitten with love for a youth, drew upon the wall the outline of his shadow, and that upon this outline her father modelled a face of the youth in clay, which he baked along with the clay tiles which it was his trade to make.
Made by the French painter Jean-Baptiste Regnault in 1786, this painting is currently used as an overdoor at the Salon des Nobles, at the Palace of Versailles. - The Origin of Sculpture or Pygmalion in Love With His Statue
In Greek mythology Pygmalion is a legendary figure of Cyprus, who was a king and a sculptor. He is most familiar from Ovid’s narrative poem Metamorphoses, in which Pygmalion was a sculptor who fell in love with a statue he had carved and which changed to a woman under Aphrodite’s blessing.
Made by the French painter Jean-Baptiste Regnault in 1785, this painting is currently used as an overdoor at the Salon des Nobles, at the Palace of Versailles.

Sitting high up on its perch (or not so high, depending on the height of your furniture), The Imposing Falcon stares at the lesser statues beneath him (or above) with a gaze that is most definitely imposing.

Four Overdoor Paintings
I made these four overdoor paintings to ornate our Sims’ house
- Hyacinth Changed into a Flower
In the literary myth, Hyacinth was a beautiful youth and lover of the god Apollo, though he was also admired by the god West Wind (Zephyros). Apollo and Hyacinth took turns throwing the discus. Hyacinth ran to catch it to impress Apollo, was struck by the discus as it fell to the ground, and died. A twist in the tale makes the West Wind responsible for the death of Hyacinth.
This painting was made by the French painter Nicolas-René Jollain, between 1768 and 1779. You could see it in the Petit Trianon, Versailles, France. - Clytia Changed into a Sunflower
According to Greek mythology, Clytia, nymph daughter of Ocean, was abandoned by her lover, Helios, god of the Sun. For nine days, she sat on the ground, without food or water, watching the sun travel. It withered away and changed into a flower but continued to turn towards the star despite everything.
This painting was made by the French painter Nicolas-René Jollain, in 1768. You could see it in the Petit Trianon, Versailles, France. - Adonis transformed by Venus into an Anemone
In Greek mythology, Adonis, of great beauty, was one of Aphrodite’s lovers. During a hunt, Adonis was mortally wounded by a wild boar and from his blood spilled on the ground new flowers were born.
This painting was made by the French painter Nicolas-Bernard Lépicié in 1768. You could see it in the Petit Trianon, Versailles, France. - Narcissus Changed into the Flower of that Name
In Greek mythology, Narcissus, a young man of great beauty, rejected with disdain the advances of the Nymphs. One of them implored the sky so that Narcissus, in turn, loves without being able to be loved. Nemesis, goddess of vengeance and divine punishment, granted this wish and Narcissus, who saw his reflection on the water of a spring, fell desperately in love with it. Unable to take his eyes off him, he wasted away after several days. At the place of his missing body the Nymphs found only a golden flower crowned with alabaster leaves.
This painting was made by the French painter Nicolas-Bernard Lépicié in 1768. You could see it in the Petit Trianon, Versailles, France.

Diana of Versailles
The Diana of Versailles or Artemis, Goddess of the Hunt, is a slightly over-lifesize marble statue of the Roman goddess Diana (Greek: Artemis) with a deer. It is a partially restored Roman copy (1st or 2nd century AD) of a lost Greek bronze original attributed to Leochares, c. 325 BC.
Probably discovered in the region of Nemi, Italy, the statue was donated in 1556 by Pope Paul IV to Henry II of France. In 1602, Barthélemy Prieur restored it and added the deer, thus transforming the statue into Diana the Huntress. During the reign of Louis XIV, the group was installed in the Hall of Mirrors of the Palace of Versailles, from which it takes its current name of “Diana of Versailles”.
In 1798, the statue was transferred to the Louvre Palace in Paris, where it still stands.
I made this statue from a free 3D model I found on the Internet. I reduced significantly the number of faces, built an UV map, normal map and other textures.

Dinnerware Set
Hi everyone!
I finally finished my dinnerware set that includes plate, cutlery, glasses and napkin.
What you have to know
- These objects are decorative but Sims can place their food plate on the decorative plate to give the illusion that they eat in this last plate.
- Actually these objects are floating in the air at 0.8m, table height, so they don’t use table slots.
- The plate center is not “pickable”. This allows Sims to take the empty used plate and wash it. So if you want to move the custom plate, in buy mode, you have to click on the peripheral part.
Happy Simming!
