The showcase of the Louvre still thrills viewers today as Nike, Winged Victory, presides over its grande staircase. This scaled rendition of the goddess of victory with angelic wings spread as she landed on the prow of a ship is thought to be announcing the Rhodian naval victory over Antiochos III. In 1863, Charles Champoiseau, a French amateur archeologist, began a series of excavations in Samothrace, Greece and found the somewhat intact statue. By 1884, the goddess of victory statue was restored by the Louvre. Our Design Toscano masterpiece of Hellenistic Art sculpture is mesmerizingly detailed from draped fabric to extended goddess wings. Cast in quality, fiberglass reinforced designer resin, for year-round display in home, garden or restaurant, this classical masterpiece boasts an exquisite, faux limestone finish. Simple assembly required.
