雕像的头部与手臂在历史岁月中遗失了，但飘逸的裙裾、展翅欲飞的形态仍然动感十足，栩栩如生。这是卢浮宫最著名最珍贵的两座古代雕塑之一，另一座就是众所周知的“米罗的维纳斯”。所以，还不知道的这座胜利女神的人可要赶快扫盲哦。

The Nike (Victory) of Samothrace is a Rhodian scupltor, between 220 and 190 B.C. marble.

The Winged Victory, considered the finest extant Hellenistic Greek sculpture, portrays the goddess of victory alighting on a ship's prow, with her wings spread and her clinging garments rippling in the wind. The broken sculpture was discovered on the Aegean island of Samothrace in 1863 and immediately sent to the Louvre Museum in Paris.

Today, it is one of the most celebrated sculptures and one can see it displayed on the landing of the Daru Staircase in the Louvre. The statue's head and arms are missing, but the part that remains is so full of movement and beauty that it feels complete.
