An Allegory of Victory, Jules Joseph Lefebvre (1836-1911).

The allegorical figure has strength in her gaze, wears laurel leaves as a crown, and hold a flowered staff, all of which are attributes of Victory. Her light clothing on the upper body is itself emblematic, hinting at the life and fruitfulness which follows Victory.

A Victorian diamond, emerald and pearl caduceus br

A Victorian diamond, emerald and pearl caduceus brooch, the wand set with ten faceted emeralds estimated to weigh a total of 0.8 carats mounted in yellow gold, terminating to a round pearl on each end, the entwined serpents and the wings encrusted with old European-cut diamonds estimated to weigh 5.5 carats in total, all stones mounted in silver to yellow gold back, with gold brooch fitting, circa 1870.

The caduceus, (from the Greek world κηρύκειον) was the herald's wand carried by Hermes in Ancient Greek mythology.

As a symbolic object, it represents Hermes (or the Roman Mercury), and by extension trades, occupations, or undertakings associated with the god.

In later Antiquity, the caduceus provided the basis for the astrological symbol representing the planet Mercury.
