Aetheria Sceptria is a sculpture that pays homage to the divine ethos and humanistic spirit of ancient Greece. Her towering chignon exudes majesty, while the fluid drapery of her himation cascades like whispers of the Aegean wind. In her raised right hand, an olive-wood scepter crowned with a celestial gem symbolizes sacred authority, while her bare torso embodies the unadorned truth of nature. The sculpture harmonizes strength and grace: the star-adorned scepter guards cosmic order, yet her gently downcast eyes reveal compassion for mortals. Ivy of wisdom twines at her feet, as her stance evokes a deity emerging from the dawn-lit columns of the Parthenon—a guardian of polis and a bridge between civilization and primal essence.
