The Hermes of the Museo Pio-Clementino, part of the Vatican collections, Rome, was long admired as the Belvedere Antinous, named from its prominent placement in the Cortile del Belvedere. Its idealized face is not in fact that of Antinous, the Emperor Hadrian's beloved.This was recognized early, but the alternative identifications never gained much ground until the twentieth century. The cloak, known as a chlamys thrown over the left shoulder and wrapped round the left forearm and the relaxed contrapposto identify the sculpture as a Hermes, one of a familiar Praxitelean type.

Hermes was a proposed mini-shuttle designed by the European Space Agency which was superficially similar to the US X-20. The program was greenlit by the French government in 1978, but the project only officially started in November 1987, scheduled for service in 1995, and was finally terminated in 1993 after changes in the financial and political landscape had removed the arguments for Hermes. No Hermes shuttles were ever built.
