Hippocrates was born around the year 460 BC on the Greek island of Kos
\nHippocrates of Kos 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 sometimes referred to as the “Father of Medicine” in recognition of his lasting contributions to the field as the founder of the Hippocratic School of Medicine. Hippocrates is credited with being the first person to believe that diseases were caused naturally, not because of superstition and gods. He separated the discipline of medicine from religion, believing and arguing that disease was not a punishment inflicted by the gods but rather the product of environmental factors, diet, and living habits.

Material & Manufacture process: Cast Alabaster
\nAll of the copies of famous statues we produce made from a\u00a0\u00a0material in which natural\u00a0crushed Greek Alabaster stone\u00a0is mixed with a small quantity of resin that works as a glue.\u00a0\u0391labaster was very widely used for small sculpture for indoor use in the ancient world
\nThe construction of the statue begins with the creation of the mold. The mold is made by hand-crafted artisans and is an exact copy of the ancient statue. The prepared mixture of alabaster powder and resin is poured into the mold. The very fine dust of the alabaster allows us to make a copy with great precision in detail. The copy is then hand-crafted and perfected by our experienced craftsmen. The painting is then polished with indelible colors in white, museum patina or colored. The quality of the construction is of a high standard so that we have a perfect result that remains unchanged over time.
\nOur statues are not carved. Statues of natural marble carved in the hand are very expensive constructions. Our effort is to give you a product at a very good price with perfect construction. A perfect copy of the prototype with an emphasis on detail that does not hurt from time.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
