title: Nike of Paionios
text: The Nike of Paionios is an ancient statue of the Greek goddess of victory, Nike, made by sculptor Paionios between 425 BC and 420 BC. Made of Parian marble, the medium gives the statue a translucent and pure white look to it. Found in pieces, the statue was restored from many fragments but is lacking face, neck, forearms, part of left leg, toes, and some fragments of drapery. It also had wings. The goddess is shown landing gently on her left foot, with the drapery blown against her body.
