Discovered in Samothrace in 1863, this Hellenistic sculpture of the goddess who heralds victory is one of the most iconic artworks of the Louvre collection. The conservation project aimed to fix the monument’s structural issues and restore the original hues to the marble of the statue and that of its boat-shaped base.

More than 6,700 people participated, restoring this spectacular monument of Greek sculpture to all its former splendour. The Musée du Louvre extends its warmest thanks to all those who made a donation.
