Description
Description
This bronze portrays Mercury, the swift messenger of the Roman gods, in a dynamic pose on a rocky outcrop: one arm holds the caduceus high above his head while his body twists and his cloak flies out behind him. The winged helmet and the athletic modelling of the figure are picked out in a golden-brown patina. Mounted on a round black base, the statue stands 62.1 cm tall and weighs 9 kg.
Design & Artistic Details
The supplier names this piece after “Mercury fastening his sandals”, the famous subject sculpted by Jean-Baptiste Pigalle in 1744, whose marble now stands in the Louvre and which was reproduced in bronze throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. Mercury – the Greek Hermes – was the god of travellers, merchants, communication and good fortune, and his caduceus, a staff entwined with two snakes, became a symbol of commerce. The upward diagonal from the rocky base to the raised staff gives the statue a strong sense of motion.
