Asset Overview

**Nike** was the ancient Greek goddess of victory. **Paionios** was a Greek sculptor of the late 5th century BC. He sculpted the statue of *Nike* seen here between 425 and 420 BC, after winning the commission to decorate the *acroteria* of the **Temple of Zeus at Olympia**, as described in the pedestal inscription on the statue. The 3D model shown here is a digitization of a small plaster cast that represents a reconstruction of the original statue: ![](http://imgur.com/myBXd60.jpg)
