Often referred to as the Winged Victory, this elegant reproduction is inspired by the iconic Victory of Samothrace, a Hellenistic masterpiece dating to the late 3rd or early 2nd century BC. The original statue, which represents Nike, the Greek goddess of victory, is one of the most celebrated and visually striking sculptures in the Louvre Museum.
While the name of the sculptor and the exact date of the original remain unknown, scholars widely admire its dynamic formβNike is shown descending onto the prow of a ship, her garments seemingly swept by the wind, symbolizing triumph.
The statue was discovered in 1863 on the Greek island of Samothrace, and in 1883, it was installed at the dramatic top of the Daru staircase in the Louvre, where it remains a centerpiece and continues to inspire awe.
This 16-inch high replica is cast with fine detail and mounted on a sturdy alabaster base (4.5" W x 5" D). It's considered one of the highest quality reproductions available, ideal for lovers of classical art and museum-quality sculpture.
