雕像的頭部與手臂在歷史歲月中遺失了，但飄逸的裙裾、展翅欲飛的形態(tài)仍然動(dòng)感十足，栩栩如生。這是盧浮宮最最珍貴的兩座古代雕塑之一，另一座就是眾所周知的“米羅的維納斯”。所以，還不知道的這座勝利女神的人可要趕快掃盲哦。
The Nike （Victory） of Samothrace is a Rhodian scupltor, between 220 and 190 B.C. marble.
The Winged Victory, considered the finest extant Hellenistic Greek sculpture, portrays the goddess of victory alighting on a ship's prow, with her wings spread and her clinging garments rippling in the wind. The broken sculpture was discovered on the Aegean island of Samothrace in 1863 and immediately sent to the Louvre Museum in Paris.
Today, it is one of the most celebrated sculptures and one can see it displayed on the landing of the Daru Staircase in the Louvre. The statue's head and arms are missing, but the part that remains is so full of movement and beauty that it feels complete.
