Do you really know what Caduceus symbolize? And how Mercury does related with medicine? :)))
You are right Anon, it is a little tangential...the reason I mention the "Mercurian Legend" and use the caduceus is two-fold. One, the caduceus and the god Mercury symbolize the idea that this is acting as a "public messenger" of medical information. The caduceus (and Mercury) have multiple meanings, but I like to use this interpretation to emphasize my efforts to share that information which I have learned. Two, and this is only partially related, but the caduceus is often confused with the rod of Aesklepius and used as a symbol of medicine. Thus it conveniently acts as a gesture towards both of these purposes.
Additionally, this is a brilliant sculpture, highly recommended if ever in the Bargello Palace in Florence.
