Antique Lead Garden Statue of Mercury

Beautifully weathered garden statue of the Greek God Mercury, the messenger of gods, sitting atop a cast stone plinth. Mercury is depicted here as he often was by carrying a caduceus (wand or staff) which is entwined by two serpents, surmounted by wings to ward off evil spirits. Standing on one winged sandaled foot on a globe and beautifully raised on a cast stone plinth, this delightful antique garden statue of the classical figure of Mercury would be a perfect decorative piece for any garden setting.
