This image depicts the sculptural group and clock on the southern facade of Grand Central Terminal, located in New York City, United States. The central focus is the "Glory of Commerce" statuary, positioned above a large circular clock. The sculptural group, carved from stone, features three prominent allegorical figures. Central and elevated is a nude, muscular male figure identified as Mercury (Hermes), wearing a winged helmet and sandals. He stands on an eagle, with his right arm raised and his left hand grasping a caduceus. To the left of Mercury, a bearded, muscular male figure, representing Hercules, is seated with an implement resembling a hammer or pickaxe. To the right, a draped female figure, representing Minerva (Athena), is seated with one hand resting near her head in a contemplative pose. The figures are weathered, indicating age. Below the statuary, a large ornate clock features Roman numerals marking the hours, set against a gold and dark blue background with decorative patterns. Two gold hands indicate the time. The clock is framed by elaborate stone carvings including floral and foliate motifs. Beneath the clock and statuary, the words "GRAND CENTRAL TERMINAL" are carved in capital letters into the light-colored stone facade of the building. The sky above is clear blue with minimal cloud cover. In the upper right background, a modern building with scaffolding is partially visible. The scene is illuminated by direct sunlight, casting shadows that define the sculptural details and architectural elements. in New York, United States
