Description
The famous Winged Goddess of Victory, now seen in the Louvre museum in Paris, originally was standing on the prow of a ship, overlooking the Sanctuary of the Great Gods on the island of Samothrace. This monument was probably an ex-voto offered by the people of Rhodes in commemoration of a naval victory in the early second century BC.
