Athena's Prayer
byJames Muir
1 1/4 life-size - 77"H x 43" diameter Edition 3"ATHENA’S PRAYER" "Athena" is the classical goddess, not only of War but also of Wisdom.
A modern Athena, just returned from Battle with the enemies of America, helmet held protecting her heart, looks heavenward in Prayer. She symbolizes the feminine “prudence” to war. It begs the enigmatic question of what is her Prayer – the answer to be supplied by the viewer, as a catharsis for helping to heal the individual, and very personal, “wounds of war.” This is a tribute to all the women who have served in America’s Armed Forces.
