Presenting the magnificent statue entitled "Flying Mercury" by the famous artist Giambologna, renowned for his masterful representation of action, movement, and exquisite surface finishes. Among his most famous creations are the four versions of Mercury, a captivating representation of the god poised on one foot, supported by a zephyr. In this extraordinary sculpture, Mercury is adorned with a winged petasus on his head and winged sandals, symbolizing his speed of flight.
