With the increasing interest and development of cameo glass Aphrodite, or versions thereof, became a favoured subject for Woodall featuring in variations across a number of other plaques and vases. The depiction of a classical female nude amongst waves can be seen in examples such as Nymph of the Sea (Thomas Webb & Sons ref W2805), Sea Foam (Thomas Webb & Sons ref GW6), Aphrodite (Thomas Webb & Sons ref GW160) and Aphrodite Rising from the Waves, all illustrated in Christopher Woodall Perry - The Cameo Glass of Thomas and George Woodall.Within the Thomas Webb & Sons inventory, also provided in Christopher Perry Woodall - The Cameo Glass of Thomas & George Woodall, there are references to two other Aphrodite plaques. One is listed as GW146, measuring 11in, for which George Woodall was paid £120 with the final selling price listed as £400 and the other GW160, a smaller example at 10 and 5/8in, for which George Woodall was paid £30 and the plaque sold for £95.This example, understood to have been completed circa 1920, is listed as not for sale and refers to it being in the collection of Alice Woodall, one of George's two daughters who, along with her sister Amy, was the main inspiration for many of his female studies.In English Cameo Glass by Ray & Lee Grover they provide a list of work executed by George Woodall arranged by subject matter and recorded titled.
