This sculpture of Pallas Athena is a beautiful testimony to the fact that a woman can be both wise and a warrior. The ancient Greek goddess of wisdom, law, and justice, Athena is depicted not only with an owl but also with a spear and sword, and in full battle dress. Her gear takes nothing away from her being a beautiful female figure, however, and, with the metallic bronze finish and hand-painted highlights, she makes for a beautiful piece of art. This goddess statue is a great present for collectors of mythology or fantasy artwork, or for the strong woman in your life that does it all. Looks fabulous on any desk, table, or shelf.
