Summary
| Description |
English:
The Roman original was recovered from the Villa of the Papyri, Herculaneum during the 1750s. As of 2024, it was part of the collections of the Museo Archeologico Nazionale, Naples, Italy. The statue's winged ankles (or sandals) relate to the god's duties as Messenger to the gods. They enable him to swiftly fly through the skies.
