Nemesis Statue Sculpture Greek goddess Museum Reproduction Replica

Museum: Antalya Museum, Turkey
Date: ca. 2nd century AD
Period: Roman Imperial

Nemesis (in Greek, Νέμεσις), also called Rhamnousia/Rhamnusia ("the goddess of Rhamnous"), at
her sanctuary at Rhamnous, north of Marathon, in Greek mythology was the spirit of divine retribution
against those who succumb to hubris, vengeful fate personified as a remorseless goddess. The name
Nemesis is related to the Greek word νείμειν, meaning "to give what is due". The Romans equated the
Greek Nemesis as Invidia. Nemesis is now often used as a term to describe one's worst enemy,
normally someone or something that is the exact opposite of oneself but is also somehow similar. For
example, Professor Moriarty is frequently described as the nemesis of Sherlock Holmes.

This sculpture is identical reproduction of the original ancient masterpiece, now housed by the
prominent museum.  The statue is composed from mold made from the original, thus guaranteeing the
highest accuracy of identical reproduction.  The reproduction pictured here is made of cast marble, and
is extremely heavy and strong, having a real ancient feel. An ancient patina finishing gives it an
additional historical value (you can choose not to have patina applied and keep it all white if you like).
The statue can be displayed both inside and out, it is weatherproofed.
