Statue of Asclepius Statue of the ancient Greek god of medicine Height: Approximately 23cm Width/Depth: Approximately 7cm ※Asclepius was the son of the sun god Apollo, and was said to have possessed excellent medical skills, even the power to resurrect the dead. The snake wrapped around the base of the statue is a symbol of medicine, due to its characteristic of healing wounds through shedding its skin. The symbol of a snake wrapped around Asclepius' staff, known as the "Rod of Asclepius," is used by many medical institutions, including the World Health Organization (WHO). Stored in a private home, this is a used item and has scratches and discoloration. I have wiped it down, but there may be some remaining dirt. Please understand. I received this as a gift, so I do not know the details of the material. The photos are everything, please refer to them. If you are okay with the above conditions, please consider purchasing. I would be happy if someone who likes it would buy it. Thank you very much. Thank you for viewing.
