About the Item

A stunning and finely detailed Italian 19th century white Carrara marble statue of Hebe. This stunning statue depicts Hebe, the goddess of youth and the daughter of Zeus and Hera. Hebe stands on a ground designed base while grasping a vessel that is supported on a tree trunk designed support. Hebe is dressed in a flowing garment tied around her waist with her hair tied back in an updo. She is known for being the gods' cup-bearer, pouring them nectar and ambrosia, which was the food and drink of the gods that granted immortality. One of the notable myths involving Hebe is her marriage to Heracles (Hercules) after his death. Upon his ascension to Olympus, he was granted immortality and wed Hebe, which symbolized his ultimate reward and acceptance among the gods. Hebe’s role in mythology also emphasizes the importance of youth and renewal, often contrasting with other figures that represent aging or decline.
