Winged Victory of Samothrace

This card is definitely outside of my comfort zone - I mean, how often do I make a card that is almost all brown? But I decided I wanted to make this sculpture look accurate - the Winged Victory of Samothrace is a beautiful statue that now lives in the Musée du Louvre in Paris. She was carved from marble, and lives at the top of a stairway with a sandstone wall behind her. She doesn't have a gold frame around her, but I'm sure you'll allow me some artistic license! (Also, this die is inspired by her, she's not an exact depiction).




Thanks for visiting :)
