Athena is in the Greek mythology the goddess of wisdom, strategy and struggle, the art, the craft and the handmade.

Athena with Spear, Owl and Medusa's Head

From the house of Veronese comes this finely bronzed figure of the goddess Athena, stylishly coloured in restrained tones. In Greek mythology, Athena is the goddess of wisdom, strategy and battle, but also of art, craft and handiwork. She is depicted – as in this wonderful statuette of the goddess – in armour with a raised helmet, a long flowing cloak and a spear. She bears not only the head of Medusa on her breastplate, but also a finely detailed owl on her hand. Even in ancient depictions, the goddess wears the breastplate with Medusa's head and is accompanied by one or more owls as a symbol of wisdom. This is how the owl became the heraldic animal of the Athenians. Who does not know the saying of “carrying owls to Athens” for a pointless endeavour? On this 20 cm tall, 12.5 cm wide and 9.5 cm deep statuette of high-quality polyresin, the goddess Athena with spear and owl stands on a “rock” inscribed with her name. A beautiful and noble figure that becomes the radiant centrepiece of any collection of gods.

Noble Athena Statuette as Gift and Collector's Piece

As a symbol of wisdom and clever strategy, the Greek goddess makes a thoughtful gift – for students, teachers or anyone who values strategy, knowledge and ancient mythology. On a desk, on a bookshelf or in a display cabinet of ancient god figurines, the finely bronzed Athena statuette becomes a stylish eye-catcher and enriches any collection of Greek mythology.
