EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a remarkable bas-relief depicting Mercury, the messenger god, from one of the 14 iconic buildings at Rockefeller Center in Manhattan, New York City. The image showcases the exquisite artistry of the American School during the 20th century. Mercury is depicted with his signature attributes: a winged helmet and sandals, symbolizing his swift movements as he delivers messages between gods and mortals. The low relief sculpture beautifully showcases intricate details such as Mercury's hat, known as petasus, which shields him from the sun's rays. The art deco style of this bas-relief perfectly complements its surroundings at Rockefeller Center. The clean lines and geometric shapes evoke a sense of modernity that was prevalent during its construction period from 1931 to 1940. Notably absent from this depiction is Mercury's caduceus - a staff entwined by two serpents - often associated with him in classical mythology. However, this does not diminish the impact of this stunning artwork. Bridgeman Images has masterfully captured this print without any commercial use intended. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance. This photograph invites viewers to appreciate the timeless beauty found within Rockefeller Center while paying homage to an ancient deity who continues to inspire awe through artistry across centuries.
