Many people believe that the modern medical symbol, a stick with two coiled snakes, is derived from the stick of asklepios - but that's not true. In fact, this modern symbol is derived from the caducée (magic fly) of hermes, a small stick or stick with two snakes wrapped around it. The reason for this may be due to the link of hermes with alchemy - alchemists were, at one time, called the sons of hermes and alchemy mingled with the first medical practices. He is caught in a race up in a winged fury to deliver his message to the gods. The emphasis on the refined surface and casual elegance and beauty implies the mannerist style of bologna. This interpretation was cast according to the ancestral technique of lost wax cast iron and finished with a brown patina spot. He stands communicating the fables and messages of the ancient gods on a black marble base. It is a bronze replica of hermes (the flyingmercury) by giovanni bologna.
