Nike Greek "victory", Hellenistic goddess who embodies victory,
daughter of Pallas and Styx. It was mostly winged and depicted with the victory wreath (lat. Victoria). Often minted on coins in ancient Greece.
Among the most famous Nike depictions in free plastic education are the late classical Nike of Paionios in Olympia and the highly Hellenistic version of Nike of Samothrace in the Louvre. The latter shows the goddess of victory in triumphant flight on the front of a ship. Roman depictions of Victoria are mostly typologically based on Greek models and establish a tradition that continues in postantiquity, for example in the Statue of Liberty in New York.
