STATUE OF NIKE-VICTORY<\/strong><\/h4>\n

HANDMADE OF ALABASTER,PAINTED IN MUSEUM PATINA.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Winged Victory of Samothrace<\/b><\/i>, also called the\u00a0Nike of Samothrace<\/b><\/i>,<\/sup>\u00a0is a marble\u00a0Hellenistic sculpture\u00a0of\u00a0Nike<\/a>\u00a0(the\u00a0Greek goddess<\/a> of victory).\u00a0 That was created in about the 2nd century BC. Since 1884, it has been prominently displayed at the Louvre<\/a>\u00a0and is one of the most celebrated sculptures in the world.\u00a0 \u00a0H.\u00a0W. Janson\u00a0described it as “the greatest masterpiece of Hellenistic sculpture”.<\/sup><\/p>\n

The sculpture is one of a small number of major Hellenistic statues surviving in the original, rather than Roman copies. Only\u00a0Winged Victory<\/i>‘s<\/span>\u00a0right wing is not original, and was added by mirroring the left wing.<\/p>\n

Description<\/span><\/h3>\n

The statue is 244 centimetres (8.01 ft) high.<\/sup> It was created not only to honour the goddess, Nike, but probably also to commemorate a naval action. It conveys a sense of action and triumph as well as portraying artful flowing drapery. As though the goddess were descending to alight upon the prow of a ship.<\/p>\n

Assessment, reception and influence<\/span><\/h3>\n
\n
Despite its significant damage and incompleteness, the <\/span>Victory<\/i> is held to be one of the great surviving masterpieces of sculpture from the Hellenistic Period, and from the entire Greco-Roman era. The statue shows a mastery of form and movement which has impressed critics and artists since its discovery. It is considered one of the Louvre’s greatest treasures. And since the late 19th century it has been displayed in the most dramatic fashion, at the head of the sweeping Daru staircase.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
