EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a figure of Hermes, the ancient Greek god of trade, thieves, and travel, from the Parthenon West Pediment in Athens, Greece. Dated around 438-432 BC, this masterpiece is a prime example of the High Classical period in Greek art. The pediment, located on the fronton of the Parthenon temple on the Acropolis in Athens, is adorned with intricate sculptures, including this figure of Hermes, which is believed to have been created by the renowned Greek sculptor Pheidias. The marble figure depicts Hermes as a youthful, nude god, wearing a winged helmet and holding a caduceus, his staff entwined with two serpents. The intricate details of the muscles, veins, and folds in the figure's body, as well as the delicate rendering of the wings, demonstrate the exceptional craftsmanship of the sculptor. This figure of Hermes is now a cherished exhibit at the British Museum in London, United Kingdom, where it continues to captivate visitors with its historical significance and artistic beauty.
