Some scholars believe that the nude sculpture art in ancient Greece should come from the nude custom in primitive society. According to historical records, the primitive inhabitants before the agricultural society did not wear cloth or leaves to cover their bodies, and most of them were naked, such as the primitive people in the Pacific islands, Nanyang islands and Africa, who were mostly naked. Because primitive people regarded naked bodies as the source of life endowed by nature, and they all regarded nudity as beauty.

In fact, as early as the Paleolithic Age, in the Orgna culture of Europe, there appeared the embossed naked women in the Russel cave and the round carved naked women in the Austrian Randolph Committee. In these works, women's breasts are exaggerated, which is inseparable from the backwardness of primitive productivity and people's desire for prosperity. In ancient Egyptian murals and sculptures, they further depicted nudity. In ancient Greece and Rome, nude art reached a climax, and the famous brokeback Venus sculpture was one of the representative works.
