A Sea Breeze in Your Living Room: Admire the Replica of the Bronze Statue of Poseidon from the Ancient Collections and Glyptothek Munich
Poseidon, the mighty Greek deity of the seas, was commonly depicted with an imposing and majestic stature, symbolizing his authority over the oceans. Distinctive elements in these representations included his iconic trident, a symbol of control over the seas and earthquakes, along with the frequent presence of marine creatures such as seahorses or dolphins. Whether clad in a toga or in a simple state, Poseidon displayed an imposing physical presence, with a beard and long hair. His facial expressions varied, reflecting both anger and serenity.
Usually positioned in an upright stance, his statues conveyed his majesty and authority, at times with the trident raised as a sign of power over marine elements. Often placed near water, these depictions reinforced his close connection with the oceans.
The ensemble aimed to express Poseidon's power and sovereignty over the marine realm, as well as his influence on Earth, particularly through his associations with earthquakes. These artistic features captured the essence of Poseidon as a marine deity and prominent member of the Olympian pantheon.
