Why You’ll Love It
Inspired by one of the most celebrated sculptures of the Renaissance, this exquisite bronze miniature by acclaimed artisan Joseph Addotta faithfully recreates Giambologna's legendary "Flying Mercury" of 1580. The Roman messenger god is captured in a breathtaking moment of effortless ascent, balancing upon the breath of Zephyrus while pointing skyward. Every iconic symbol is present—from his winged sandals and winged cap to the delicate caduceus (staff). It has some patina adding to its old world appeal and would make a magnificent focal point for a grand entrance hall, neoclassical library, gentleman's study, museum gallery, or manicured garden.
