The Nymph

The Golden Nymph Award is among the most prestigious prizes in international television. For the Fiction and News & Documentaries categories, it rewards the talent and creativity of the Official Selection.

The statuette is a replica of the Nymph Salmacis, created by the Monégasque artist François-Joseph Bosio, who was chief court sculptor to Louis XVIII. The original can still be seen at the Louvre in Paris.
