Description:
|
|
Roman copy from the late 1st century CE to early 2nd century CE after an inferred bronze original of the 5th century BCE which is traditionally attributed to the young Phidias, ca. 440 BCE, or alternatively called "Myronic" in style. Hermes Loghios (or Logios) means Hermes as Orator. It is a Hellenistic sculpture of the god Hermes in his form of Hermes Psychopompus (leading souls in the underworld). Its Greek original model is among the earliest sculptural representations of Hermes as beardless and youthful. It was acquired by Cardinal Ludovico Ludovisi.
