Among his most famous works are the "Mercury" sculptures, of which he created four versions, each capturing the god's dynamic poise. This remarkable bronze piece depicts Mercury, the messenger god, standing on one foot, supported by a zephyr, symbolizing his swiftness. He is depicted wearing a winged petasus on his head and winged sandals, enhancing his speed in flight. In his hand, he carries the caduceus, the staff given to him by Apollo, which has come to symbolize the practice of medicine.The god raises one arm to point heavenwards, a gesture borrowed from the repertoire of classical rhetoric, characteristic of Giambologna's maniera style. This sculpture demonstrates the artist's skill in capturing not only the physical form but also the essence of divine movement and expression. The quality of this refined art is rarely found in recast bronzes, making it a highly valuable piece for collectors and admirers of classical art.This exquisite sculpture was cast using the "Lost Wax Method," ensuring the highest fidelity to the original design. It is mounted on a gorgeous, heavy marble base with a delightful bronze trim, adding to its elegance and stability. The sculpture bears the signature of Giambologna, affirming its connection to the legendary artist and adding to its quality and value.
