EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Statue of Hygieia, the Goddess of Health. With its origins in ancient Greek mythology, this Roman replica dates back to the 3rd century BC and is currently housed in The Hermitage collection in St Petersburg. Hygieia, daughter of Asklepios, the God of Medicine, holds great significance as her name serves as the etymological root for our modern word "hygiene". This statue beautifully captures her essence and power over health and well-being. Sitting gracefully on a stone seat, Hygieia exudes an aura of serenity and wisdom. A reptilian companion coils around her arm symbolizing healing powers associated with snakes in both Greek and Roman cultures. The intricate details carved into this marble sculpture bring life to every curve and contour. The vibrant colors add depth to this timeless piece of art that represents not only a goddess but also an era long past. Its presence evokes a sense of awe while reminding us of ancient Greece's rich cultural heritage. As we admire this remarkable artwork from centuries ago, let us reflect on how hygiene has evolved throughout history. From its mythological roots to our contemporary understanding today, it serves as a poignant reminder that good health is indeed one's greatest wealth.
