I can't wait to see your artwork. Smile

I have not spent months gathering Hoplites from the four corners of the earth just to let
some Swedish pancake in a purloined panoply lop their lower limbs off!

In either case would it look neat on the front page of my never-going-to-be-finished paper on departure scenes. Smile

Hello
Thank you Susanne and Albert for your interest.
As I said earlier, the painting is almost finished but, as I am working on several projects at the same time, it will take a little longer to be completed.
I will post it here asap.
Best regards

Susanne, I think we could arrange for that

Hello
While discussion this subject with a friend of mine, he told me that, in Greek art, some animals were painted as symbols, omens.
He said that lizards were painted as omen of imminent death in departure scenes.
He could not provide further evidence to this; can anyone please direct me to relevant data about this: the use of animals as symbols.
Frankly if this is true I would like to know what other animals were used, as opposite symbols (of good fortune), as I do not wish to transmit a bad “vibeâ€

Hello
Just to add that friend of mine could not remember where he read that, but thought that it was some article dealing precisely with the use of animals as symbols in ancient Greek art.
Best regards
