WINGED VICTORY OF SAMOTHRACE


A strong and elegant sculpture!
The beautiful Nike of Samothrace.
Strangely, I love your absent face.
 
Powerful warrior with elegance of feature,
your strength comes from your two wings
guiding the armed people and their kings
 
Your eyes irradiate the enemy as a torture,
your voice encourages your own warriors
to give their lives for the rising victorious
 
And at the end of this warring adventure,
the victory with a great ovation in Thrace
your smile dazzles on your absent face.
