Greek Mythology Wall Art in Gold

Greek Mythology Wall Art in Gold

The gods of ancient Greece have been carved, painted and retold for nearly three thousand years, and their stories still give us words and images: Athena's owl of wisdom, Medusa's stare, Pegasus taking flight, Apollo's lyre, Persephone's pomegranate and Poseidon's trident. The six works in this collection show them as marble statues lit against the dark, with gold leaf on helmets, wreaths, crowns and ornaments. Pegasus alone is cast entirely in gold, rearing on a navy sky.

White marble, black and gold make a calm, classical set that suits a study, a library, a hallway or a living room with stone or plaster tones. Persephone adds deep red roses, Poseidon a dark teal sea, so the set can be hung as a group of six or split into smaller pairs. Each figure is identified by the attribute it holds, which makes the series a good start for a conversation about the myths. Every work is a printable download: a 7168 × 10752 px file that prints sharply to about 60 × 90 cm, a Frame TV version with a gallery mat and a licence certificate.
