Achelous at The Palace of Versailles, France

In Greek mythology, Achelous was the patron deity of the "silver-swirling" Achelous River, which is the largest river of Greece, and thus the chief of all river deities, every river having its own river spirit. His name is pre-Greek, its meaning unknown. The Greeks invented etymologies to associate it with Greek word roots (one such popular etymology translates the name as "he who washes away care"). However, these are etymologically unsound and of much later origin than the name itself.
This marble sculpture depicting achelous was created between 1684 - 1688 by French sculptor Simon Maziere (1649 - around 1722).
