This is the Winged Victory (Nike) of Samothrace. It is a Hellenistic Greek sculpture dating to about 200–190 BCE. The work served as a victory monument and votive dedication—celebrating a naval triumph and honoring the goddess Nike—and was originally mounted on the prow of a ship at a sanctuary on the island of Samothrace.
