Greek sculpture casting of head of Hippocrates father of medicine , Reproduction from National Archaeological Museum of Athens 2ond cen. B.C.



Hippocrates of Kos 460 – c. 370 BC), also known as Hippocrates II, was a Greek physician of the Age of Pericles (Classical Greece), and is considered one of the most outstanding figures in the history of medicine. He is referred to as the "Father of Modern Medicine" in recognition of his lasting contributions to the field as the founder of the Hippocratic School of Medicine. This intellectual school revolutionized medicine in ancient Greece, establishing it as a discipline distinct from other fields with which it had traditionally been associated (theurgy and philosophy), thus establishing medicine as a profession.

The art work is made by keramin, a plaster - polymer compound .

We don't use alabaster ( or marble dust or magnesitis or sand ) which are VERY cheap materials with porous and poor quality.

All of our sculptures are high museum copies and not free designs that's why we mention from where copies come from.



Each piece is unique so the patina may have differences from item to item.
