Prometheus Being Chained by Vulcan

Artist: Dirck van Baburen (Dutch, c 1594/1595–1624)

Date: 1623

Medium: Oil on canvas

Collection: The Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, Netherlands

Description

The painting represents a tale from Greco-Roman mythology. Mercury, the messenger of the gods, watches the club-footed blacksmith god, Vulcan, punish the bold and cunning Titan Prometheus for stealing fire from the gods and giving it to mortals. Prometheus's punishment is to be bound to a rock and to have his liver consumed daily by an eagle, which appears partially at the top left.

Breg the Ironclaw, The Dragon God of Fire, Strength and Power

"Hear the mighty boom as mountains rise from the earth. Watch the glow of lava flow from the rise of volcanoes. Look within the caverns as the clang reveals its wonders and curiosity. This is the work of the Blacksmith God who works tirelessly and provides fire to the weary with warmth. Breg the Ironclaw bestows his gifts to the world he collaborated with."

-The Keeper of Fire;

The Codex of Mythos pg.8

Every year, most villagers hold a special tournament to see who can claim the title as champion of their village. But this is not just a simple game to test each contender's skill and power. This is a ritual to honor the volcanic Dragon God, Breg. Breg, unlike the other dragons, is full of pride and valor. Not to mention the loudest and shortest. But like his dragon brethren, Breg protects those who honor the Dragon. With his mighty hammer, Quake Crusher, he created the mountains and mighty volcanoes when he and his dragon breatherans created the worlds. Breg has created special armor made out of his own scales for his chosen champions. The scale armor plays the role of a cooling system to protect the wearer from any intense heat, even inside the volcano. The wearer can breathe fire thanks to the armor.

Mythology: The Greek Pantheon - Hephaestus

It was probably no accident that it was the cripple Hephaestus who made ingenious machines; a normal man didn't have to hoist or jack himself over hindrances by means of cranks, chains and metal parts.

Some Souls WIP I just wanted to show before i go to bed :)

The First Image is an unmasked collection of the wide-and-thin combos throughout the games in the same vein as my deities picture, also including the Dancer and Vordt in the absolute last minute. Unmasked because I wanted to challenge myself in terms of giving each one a unique face.

The 2nd is the first batch of part 2 of “Deities of Dark Souls”... I’m actually a bit conflicted if I should add the crossbreeds or not, because would the painter girl be considered a “deity” in a proper sense?

Also, yes Flann is indeed a cocky shirtless man who does flame combos... Because I interpret him being one of the first students of Pyromancy as well as the guy the Desert Pyromancers/Sorcerors got their inspiration from xD.

Quotes from GODS AND ROBOTS by ADRIENNE MAYOR:

“The artistic decision to show Prometheus constructing the first human starting with the bone structure likens the Titan to a sculptor who constructs a statue upon a model skeleton. Kanaboi, skeletal forms, usually of wood, were used by ancient sculptors as the internal core around which they would attach clay, wax, or plaster in the first states of creating statues….
