Roman Mythology: Mercury

God of Trade, Profit, Merchants and Travellers. His main festival, the Mercuralia, was celebrated on May 15 and on this day the merchants sprinkled their heads and their merchandise with water from his well near the Porta Capena. The symbols of Mercury are the caduceus (a staff with two intertwined snakes) and a purse (a symbol of his connection with commerce). Originated from the Greek god, Hermes.

Medium: Watercolours on AMEDEO 200GSM Artist’s Sheet.
