Apollo is the Olympian god of light, music and poetry, healing and plagues, prophecy and knowledge, order and beauty, archery and agriculture. He's the ultimate Hellenic ideal: harmony, reason and moderation personified, a perfect blend of physical superiority and moral virtue. The Victorians, rabid consumers of Neoclassical art and design, created this ring, carving Apollo's name in a charming rustic ancient-style font.
