| Reverse description | Nike, winged goddess of victory, depicted in a long belted chiton, seated to the left upon a square cippus (votive pillar). Her right arm extends forward to touch a lion's-head fountain spout, while her left hand rests on the seat behind her. The composition is rendered in the refined Early Classical style associated with the sanctuary workshops of Olympia, evoking the sacred precinct's ritual imagery. The Greek letter digamma (F), serving as an abbreviation for the Eleans (FALEION), appears in the field. |
