#Cronus art collection

[fallseidol]

Cronus has added a piece to his art collection, a statue he is currently staring at. His expression is hard to read.

"...I suppose it is my fault for misreading the name, but in truth..."

He strokes his beard, considering.

"....I don't -hate- it.... "

Unlike Homer, we do have some record of the poet Hesiod, as he brought details of his personal life into his work. His epic poems are invaluable reference sources for the formation of the cosmos and the genealogies of the Greek Gods.

The first major extant (still existing) work of Hesiod’s is the epic poem and invocation hymn “Theogony,” (origin of the gods, 700 B.C.E.) In the poem, while shepherding sheep upon Mount Helicon, Hesiod tells of encountering the Muses who gift Hesiod a laurel staff, a symbol of poetic authority, and breathing into him the divine breath of inspiration. In this poem Hesiod gives us the forming of the universe from Uranus (sky) and Gaia (earth) and the cyclops, giants, and Titans to follow. In this work with have the triple succession motif of sons overthrowing fathers with Cronus overthrowing Uranus, and then Zeus overthrowing Cronus in the Titanomachy (war between Olympians and titans.)

His second work, “Works and Days” is a didactic collection of pastoral poetry tales used to illustrate for his ne’er-do-well brother, Perses, how to lead a more virtuous life through hard work, humility and justice. Here we get the tales of Prometheus stealing fire from Zeus and Pandora opening the jar and releasing evil upon mankind. Hesiod also lists the fascinating fives ages of man; the Golden age, the Silver age, the Bronze age, the Heroic age, and the Iron age. The poem ends with ruminations on seasons and agricultural wisdom.

In my illustration we see the sacred fountain of Hippocrene in the background, which was said to have poured forth when Pegasus struck his hoof into the ground. The sacred stream was said to give the drinker poetic inspiration.

One tale of Hesiod’s death is that the oracle of Delphi told him he would die at Nemea, so he fled to Locris, where he, unable to escape fate, eventually died at the temple to Nemean Zeus, fulfilling the prophecy in typical ironic fashion.

Thanks for looking and reading, and for rehashing/reblogging my works you fine Tumblr folks! Happy 2023! xoxo

interview meme

——— character question sheet

▌real name: hades. ▌single or taken:  married to persephone. ▌abilities or powers: geokinesis (mostly the manipulation of gems and metals, though he is able to create clefts in the earth from which the dead often pour forth), pyrokinesis (minimally. can summon flames in a pinch), control of the dead (he can summon them even in the world of the living, and commands he gives the dead are immediately obeyed. he also has the ability to sense spirits, track them, and suck the literal life essence out of mortal souls to collect them), invisibility (thanks to his helm), as well as shit like immortality, increased healing, teleportation and transformation, telekinesis, etc etc etc

▌eye colour: dark brown, almost black. ▌hair colour: black, shoulder length, and pretty curly. (like a 2b)

▌family members: his parents are cronus & rhea, his siblings hestia, hera (twin), poseidon, demeter, & zeus. his children are zagreus, melinoe, & makaria. but he's also related to the entire pantheon of gods in one way or another. ▌pets: cerberus, of course! but he also has six finches he takes very good care of. and ghost chickens!

▌something they don’t like: people invading his personal space. he can withstand a lot, but he loathes being touched without his consent. ▌hobbies/activities: reading, watching and documenting his experience with films, the study of filmography, writing & playing music (playing piano, violin, and cello), visiting museums, art galleries, operas, and theatres. ▌ever hurt anyone before:  numerous times, though none so violently as pirithous & theseus. ▌ever killed anyone before: most certainly, though hades does not necessarily enjoy it.

▌animal that represents them: dogs mostly, but some serpents as well. ▌worst habits: self-isolation & self-loathing, hiding his emotions to the point of snapping, drinking, smoking, and self-harm. ▌role models: hera, zeus, and hestia. prometheus, kratos, and metis as well.

▌sexual orientation: bisexual. ▌thoughts on marriage/kids: despite the rocky start to his marriage, it is something that hades values immensely. in his youth, he did not believe that he would ever find love, particularly not one that lasted. when he was assigned to the underworld, he wrote it off even further - for who would ever willingly sign their life away to the underworld? in the end, it was not a choice he offered his wife - partially out of poor judgment, customs, and desperation, but also because he did not think there was any other way. discovering that persephone actually grew to love him despite his transgressions was everything to him. and kids are much the same; something he wrote off as an impossibility. something he longed for, surely, but doubted he would ever have because he refused to bear them. marrying persephone did not assuage those doubts, and despite wanting it so badly, he dared not suggest it. it was persephone who eventually came to him demanding children, and they found a way. being a father is the greatest joy in hades' life.

▌fears: deep-seated fears include losing his family, failing them, and abandonment. he's also really scared of heights though. ▌style preferences: hades used to dress far more formally; full suits, perfectly pressed, and whatever other formal fashions existed in every time period. all in black, all an attempt to appear composed and in control. getting sober meant exposing parts of himself he had once tried to keep hidden, and in doing so, became far more confident just being. which meant more comfortable clothing - still nice, most of the time, and he dresses up for fancy occasions. but he likes just wearing a t-shirt and jeans, with a nice pair of shoes and maybe a suave jacket. sometimes, at home, he even wears joggers. ▌someone they love: his children. which, naturally, feels like the obvious answer but it's one that's hard earned. he's always loved his children, deeply, but in the throes of grief found it very difficult to show melinoe and makaria any affection. he's tried very hard in recent years to rectify that. his love was always there, but dormant. now it blooms.

▌approach to friendships: friendships tend to happen to hades more often than not. he certainly tries to be friendly, and those he's already close with receive more obvious attempts at connection. but any new friends he makes are usually done so because others he knows encourage a relationship, or a person looks at him and goes YEP he's going to be my friend!! hades has the autistic rizz, people find his persona charming but only the right people

▌thoughts on pie: hades loves sweets, so he definitely likes pie. ▌favourite drink: hestia's tea. ▌favourite place to spend time at:  his living room at home, watching a movie with his family.  ▌swim in the lake or in the ocean: hades would pass on both, tbh, but if he had to choose it would be the ocean. ▌their type: hades has a thing for mouthy ones. he likes a little bit of talk back, he likes people who are sassy and outspoken, who don't take his shit - but he also likes people who are patient and kind. someone who will tease him ruthlessly for not understanding pop culture but then gently explain it to him, you know? ▌camping or indoors: indoors. get that man away from dirt, bugs, and the heat of the sun.

”Time Chasing Love Away” - ”Le Temps chasse l'Amour” - painted in 1879 by Pierre-Charles Comte (1823 - 1895). Oil on canvas; dimensions: 101 x 73 cm or 39.76 x 28.74 in. Private Collection. The painting shows Saturn, the personification of time in Roman mythology, chasing away the chariot in which sits Venus with her son Cupid. The chariot is drawn by two white doves. Saturn was a Roman god with a similar history to Cronus from Greek mythology. Associated with agriculture, harvest, wealth, abundance, and time, he was one of the most powerful gods of the ancient Romans. Saturn, like Cronos, carried a scythe or sickle. Pierre-Charles Comte was a French painter. He studied under Claude Bonnefond (1796-1860) in Lyon and Joseph-Nicolas Robert-Fleury (1797-1890) in Paris. Comte belonged to the academism art style and is known for history and genre painting.

Leadership and Influence: Unveiling the Deception and Fraud

Leadership and Influence: Unveiling the Deception and Fraud

You are Admired & Respected

“Great works are performed not by strength, but perseverance” - Dr. Samuel Johnson.

“What is in position of Leadership and Influence represents serious deception and fraud in position and speech which includes the ideology behind the representation, my Earth is in peril, but you have failed in your responsibilities and suffer this as a result, I can assist, but will you ask” – Gaia ‘Primordial Earth, Destroyer’.

The Titan Society – Cronus ‘Titan Leader, Destroyer’, Hecate ‘Witchcraft, Destroyer’ Circe ‘Sorceress, Destroyer’.

Andrew Rogers – Founder, Creative Director, Writer, Oracle.

Leadership and influence play crucial roles in any society, acting as guiding forces that shape the direction and progress of a community. However, in a world plagued by deception and fraud, the significance of these qualities becomes even more prominent. It is imperative to understand the impact of leadership and influence and the responsibility that comes with wielding them.

Deception and fraud are pervasive issues that have the power to erode trust, destabilize institutions, and hinder progress. They can take various forms, including dishonesty, manipulation, and misrepresentation. In such an environment, it's essential for individuals in positions of leadership and influence to counteract these negative forces.

Leaders and influencers, whether in politics, business, or any other field, have the ability to shape opinions, inspire action, and drive positive change. They possess the platform to communicate ideas, set ethical standards, and create a sense of direction for society. However, the integrity and authenticity with which they exercise their power are key factors in determining their impact.

One of the most dangerous aspects of deception and fraud is the underlying ideology that drives it. This ideology often seeks personal gain or power at the expense of others, leading to a toxic and divisive environment. Leaders and influencers who are aware of this danger must actively work to counteract it by embodying transparency, honesty, and ethical behavior.

When leaders and influencers fail to fulfill their responsibilities or succumb to deception and fraud, the consequences can be dire. Society suffers, trust is shattered, and progress stalls. In such circumstances, it becomes crucial for individuals who recognize these issues to step up and offer their assistance.

Gaia, often referred to as 'Primordial Earth, Destroyer,' reveals the urgent need to address the perils our planet faces due to a lack of responsible leadership and influence. The call for assistance is a reminder that collective action and a commitment to truth and integrity are necessary to overcome the challenges we face.

In conclusion, leadership and influence are vital in a world grappling with deception and fraud. They have the power to shape society, promote transparency, and foster trust. However, it is the ethical and responsible exercise of these qualities that can truly combat the negativity that arises from deception and fraud. As individuals, we must recognize the importance of these virtues and be willing to answer the call for assistance in times of need. Only then can we create a brighter future for ourselves and future generations.

What sort of porn do you look for?

"I have no interest in that degrading dreck."

"The human body isn't meant to be slavered over, it's to be worshiped and admired. If I want to appreciate it, I turn to my art collection. Some of the finest pieces mankind has ever produced! Here, I'll show you one of my favorites."

"Do you see how the women are in light and the men in shadow? It's how it should be!"

Portrait of the Deity, With and Without the Aritists Wife.

A painting Cronus had done in one of his kingdoms before Latium, one with two different versions. One, as he had planned, with a nod to his love for womanhood. And the second, an impromptu burst of inspiration, which the artist begged to paint for him. A second portrait, with his halfling wife, who seemed entirely entranced by Cronus' smile.

This commission was done by @whiteswarmart! Second portrait under readmore!

[fallseidol]

*Moving with the reflexes of a flexible conjurer, Koschei reached into his cost and politely presented Cronus with the small plastic bag of sweets.*

Koschei: "There's not really much left to tell. It ended up at auction you say? Hmm, oh yes, that's right, I'd forgotten, miss Georgiou had tragically passed away semi-recently, and her wishes must've been ignored..."

*The creature tutted, as if expressing a grimaced 'oh dear' with his tongue.*

Koschei: "so you also have a hobby for collecting magic as well as unappreciated art? Very fine~" Koschei: "But, well, I hate to be the one to burst the proverbial bubble, lord Cronus, but I don't think the Ruby Tree really has any particular arcane properties... except..."

*Again with the 'except', one night begin to suspect a pattern...*

Koschei: "Perhaps...no no, it's utter poppycock..."

*He said that, turning away from Cronus' eye contact and tapping his chin thoughtfully.*

"Now, now, don't be such a cynic!" Cronus retrieved one of the sweets, never taking his eyes off Koschei as he unwrapped it.

"Wouldn't you concede that ALL art has just a little bit of magic in it? The Magic of human imagination, at the very least! And that's nothing to scoff at."
