The Nine Muses ceramic relief - Goddesses of Literature Science Arts Inspiration

Description: THE NINE MUSES The Nine Muses of the Greek Mythology were deities that gave artists, philosophers and individuals the necessary inspiration for creation. According to Hesiod's the Nine Muses were the nine daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne figuring as personifications of knowledge and the arts, especially literature, dance and music. Hesiod reveals that they were called Muses or Mouses in Greek, as the Greek word “mosis” refers to the desire and wish. The word museum also comes from the Greek Muses. The Nine Muses were: Clio, Euterpe, Thalia, Melpomeni, Terpsichore, Erato, Polymnia, Ourania and Calliope. All the ancient writers appeal to the Muses at the beginning of their work. Homer asks the Muses both in the Iliad and Odyssey to help him tell the story in the most proper way, and until today the Muses are symbols of inspiration and artistic creation.() Details:Condition: New, Made in Greece.Material: CeramicHeight: 7 cm - 2.8 inchesWidth: 30 cm - 11.8 inches Weight: 330g
