Background
Nike, in ancient Greek religion, was a goddess who personified victory, also known as the Winged Goddess of Victory. The Roman equivalent was Victoria. Depending upon the time of various myths, she was described as the daughter of the Titan Pallas and the goddess Styx, and the sister of Kratos (Strength), Bia (Force), and Zelus (Zeal).
Nike's manner of death is a reference to the Winged Victory of Samothrace, also called the Nike of Samothrace, a marble sculpture of the Greek goddess Nike made in 2nd-century BC. It was created to honor the goddess of victory, as well as a sea battle, and it is meant to represent action and triumph with artful flowing drapery, as though the goddess was descending to alight upon the prow of a ship. The statue is portrayed with full stretched wings, but currently lacks arms and a head.
