Zeus
•
•
•
•
Roman name- Jupiter, Jove
Greek name- Zeus
Parents- Kronos and Rhea
Sphere of influence- most of Greece and Rome
worshipped him, and he controlled the gods and
Olympus
• Attributes- Lighting bolt, royal scepter, and eagle
• Birthplace- Diktaion cave, Crete
Zeus pictures
Pre- 476 A.D. picture
Post-1400 A.D. picture
•
•
•
ca 480 BC
I chose this picture for many reasons. The first
reason was that it clearly shows Zeus’s two most
known attributes the lightning bolt and his
scepter. It also shows Zeus as many have
described his appearance, average height and
bearded. Also it looks like the painter really
knew Zeus, like he’s really there. Those are the
reasons I chose this picture.
The reasons I chose this picture are as follows. I
felt like my first choice it displayed Zeus’s
greatest attributes the lightning bolt, and in this
instance the eagle. Also it was a nice contrast to
the first in that he looked very powerful, a little
older, and much more like what I think of a god.
It also, I thought, showed more of what Zeus
would look like in modern day instead of in
ancient times like in the first picture. That is why
I chose this picture.
Hades
•
•
•
•
Greek names- Hades, Ades, and Aidoneus
Roman name- Dis Pluto
Parents- Kronos and Rhea
Sphere of Influence- controlled the under
world
• Attributes- Key of Hades and Cerberus
• Birthplace- island of Crete
Hades pictures
Pre-476 A.D. picture
•
ca 330 - 310 BC
•
This picture was my choice for various reasons.
The first reason is that it showed Hades as many
have described him, he looks a lot like his
brothers except his hair was forward on his
head. Also it showed him on his throne and he’s
holding his royal scepter. My last reason was
that it really looked like it was painted in hell like
you were there. It made me feel like I was about
to be judged to get into Elysium. Those are my
reasons for selecting this picture.
Post-1400 A.D. picture
•
My reasons for choosing this picture
were slightly different from my previous
picture. First of all this pictured showed
Hades in a more youthful light and he is a
warrior. Secondly because of his outfit and
accessories I feel like he is about to bring a
couple of other people to his home ( the
underworld). Finally this picture is showing
one of his attributes, Cerberus, the three
headed dog. That is why I chose this picture
Poseidon
•
•
•
•
•
Greek name- Poseidon
Roman names- Neptunus and Neptune
Parents- Kronos and Rhea
Sphere of Influence- Ruler of the sea
Attributes- the dolphin, the horse, and the
trident
• Birthplace- town of Mantineia, Crete
Poseidon Pictures
Pre-476 A.D. picture
Post-1400 A.D. picture
•
•
ca 480 BC
•
This picture was my choice for many reasons.
My first reason was that obviously it shows his
most widely known attribute his trident.
Another reason was that it showed his
historically portrayed image, an exact copy of
Zeus except not as great. My last reason was the
whole scene itself made me wonder what he is
doing and what he just did. Is he about to make
an important decision? Is that why he is at the
throne? That is why I chose this painting.
I chose this picture for some contrasting
reasons to my first. In this picture he still
obviously has the trident but in this one he
also is shown more as the king of the sea.
Secondly in this one it still shows him looking
like Zeus but it gives him a better image,
more like a god, than the first. Finally I feel
like this picture makes him, even if he seems
older, more current. Like he’s about to punish
us, the human race, for polluting his sea,
instead of trying to lead Columbus to
America with the tide. That’s why I chose this
picture.
Hestia
•
•
•
•
•
•
Greek name- Hestia
Roman name- Vesta
Parents- Kronos and Rhea
Sphere of Influence- Hearth and home
Attributes- flowered branch and a kettle
Birthplace- Island of Crete
Hestia Pictures
Pre-476 A.D.
•
•
Unknown
This image of Hestia was my selection
because it showed her with one of her
attributes the branch of flowers. Also it
shows her in a scene that made me feel
like she was protecting the safety of our
homes. Also even though it did not
show her as a beautiful goddess it still
looks like she is given great respect.
That is why I selected this image.
Post-1400 A.D.
•
This picture of Hestia really made me feel
like she was real. Aside from Greek and
Roman historians most people don’t know
who she is. This made me feel like she was
really protecting my home. Also it is
showing her guarding the hearth and it
shows her attribute the kettle. My last
reason was that this picture was very
colorful and gave her an image that is now
in my mind. That is why I chose this image.
Hera
•
•
•
•
•
Greek name- Hera
Roman name- Juno
Parents- Kronos and Rhea
Sphere of Influence- Air, Sky & Heavens
Attributes- Chariot, Clothing, Jewelry, cuckoo,
hawk, and a royal lion
• Birthplace- Island of Crete
Hera Pictures
Pre-476 A.D.
•
•
ca 500 - 475 BC
I chose this picture because it showed Hera with her
attributes clothing and jewelry. Also as many have
described her she is wearing a crown and holding a
lotus-tipped staff. Another reason I chose this picture
was that the cuckoo and or hawk was in the background.
My final reason was that overall it was a just a beautiful
picture, a great representation of an ancient goddess.
That is why I chose this picture.
Post-1400 A.D.
•
This picture was my choice because it
obviously shows a more modern goddess of
marriage, a present representation of this
deity. Also it shows her with her crown and
feathers of the peacock. My final reason is
that it shows her in a beautiful dress with
jewelry as she is portrayed. Those are my
reasons for choosing this picture.
