The great Earth goddess, Gaia, has been beautifully crafted in this sculpture, with great detail in her tree branch hair complete with birds, her earthy dress, the feathers in her hand, and her loving and benevolent visage. In Greek mythology, she was the primordial goddess who gave birth to the sky, the titans, the giants, and the sea. She was a nature goddess and the mother of all life. The finish is metallic antique bronze, hand painted with textures and colored tints to give the figure shadows and depth, making her come to life. It is a beautiful gift for lovers of legends, fantasy art enthusiasts, and any strong woman in your life.
