Still, in this frieze the Muses are away with Hygia, the goddess of health and clarity who was the adolescent of the god of care, Asclepius. You can see a close-up of Hygia in the photo to the suitable. She seems an commandeer goddess to pretty up the access of a nurses' home - I lean forward the Muses have an effect how much nurses need to be multi-talented.

I really wish to read that too some time!
