The Athena Pallas is one of the most important busts surviving of the Greek goddess Athena (Roman Minerva) because it was carved of Parian marble, found on the island of Crete, and believed to be carved by the sculptor Cephisodote from the late Classical period in the 4th century.
Athena--as the Greek goddess of wisdom, skills and warfare--was one of the twelve Olympians. Here she is depicted wearing her traditional helmet.
Reproduced after an ancient original in the Louvre Museum, Paris.
