Since these are realistic, to me it means that the artists had an actual model if front of them. This what I find very interesting considering we expect that the environment was very harsh and it perhaps gives some weight to the 'queen' hypothesis.

Only when you need to paint or sculpt very fine details, one needs a model to sit still for hours. To model the basic shape like the Venus, it would be enough to sit in a corner and watch other women, or one women in particular.
