His winged helmet, symbolizing his swiftness, is detailed, and the caduceus staff rests against his shoulder, a symbol of harmony and balance. The background, a blend of warm and cool tones, evokes the colors of a sunrise, suggesting the beginning of a new journey or message. Oil, canvas. Signed and varnished.
