HISTORY AND MYTHOLOGY: The Nike of Samothrace was found on the island of Samothrace, in the Aegean Sea, Greece, in 1863 by a French expedition. Nike is the goddess who personified triumph and victory in Greek Mythology. Nike and her siblings were all attendants of Zeus. Nike assume the role of the gods' personal charioteer. At first she was considered an aspect of Pallas Athena, the dispenser of victory, but was gradually separated from her. Athena, Zeus and Ares can be seen carrying small figures of Nike indicating that she is an attribute to them. Nike with Athena is always wingless while Nike as a separate goddess is always winged. Frequently she is seen hovering with outspread wings over the victor in a competition. Nike is often shown flying down with a torch and a wreath to bestow victory on an athlete. Greek custom shows Nike draped and the athlete nude. Her Roman counterpart is Victoria. The Winged Victory of Samothrace is one of the masterpieces of Hellenistic sculpture.
