Mercury bust sculpture, after Canova.
A classic marble bust of Mercury, wearing helmet decorated with his customary wings.
"Mercury is a major Roman god, being one of the Dii Consentes within the ancient Roman pantheon. He is the patron god of financial gain, commerce, eloquence (and thus poetry), messages/communication (including divination), travelers, boundaries, luck, trickery and thieves; he is also the guide of souls to the underworld. He was considered the son of Maia and Jupiter in Roman mythology."
Our Mercury bust sculpture represents the delicacy and artistic prowess of Antonio Canova as leader of the neoclassical movement,
Marble Sculpture
Our sculpture is produced by a unique and proprietary dry casting process. They are made of white Carrara marble and over 90% of the finished sculpture is natural marble which gives it a look and feel of natural marble. They are finished by hand.
