Afrodita Knidska je bila statua koja se smatra jednom od najpoznatijih djela starogrčkog vajara Praksitela iz [[Klasična Atena|Atene] (4. vijek pne.). Ona i njene kopije se često nazivaju tipom Venus Pudica (skromna Venera), zato što svoj pubis pokriva s rukama. Varijante Venus Pudicasu Venera de' Medici i Kapitolska Venera.
