Who knew salt could look like beautiful snow cones? Mountains of rainbow-colored rock salt formations dominate the Zagros mountains of Iran. The Jashak salt dome formed when the Persian Gulf evaporated millions of years ago and left behind massive quantities of salt. Salt and other evaporites have since risen upward through the overlying rock layers. […]
Details: Condition: New, Handmade in Greece. Height: 13,5 cm - 53 inches Width: 7,5 cm - 3 inches Length: 6 cm - 2,4 inches Weight: 330 g In Greek mythology satyrs are a troop of male companions of Pan and Dionysus that roamed the woods and mountains. The word Satire, meaning human follies or mistakes, comes from the word Satyr. As Dionysiac creatures, they are lovers of wine, women, and boys, and are ready for every physical pleasure. They roam to the music of pipes (auloi), cymbals, castanets, and bagpipes, and love to dance with the Nymphs (with whom they are obsessed, and whom they often pursue), and have a special form of dance called sikinnis. Because of their love of wine, they are often represented holding winecups and appear often in the decorations on winecups. Satyrs are described as roguish but faint-hearted folk — subversive and dangerous, yet shy and cowardly. They are also often depicted as fumbling, joking, and careless creatures. Satyrs are male goat-human hybrids with the torso and head of a man, and in Greek tradition with the legs, and tail of a horse. Originally, Satyrs also had human feet before Roman alterations. They are often depicted with flat noses, large pointed ears, long curly hair, and full beards, with wreaths of vine or ivy circling their balding heads. "Satyresses" were a late invention of poets, and female Satyrs are rare to uncommon even in more modern depictions. Satyrs acquired their goat-like aspect through later Roman conflation with Faunus, a carefree Italic nature spirit of similar temperament. Hence satyrs are most commonly described in Latin literature as having the upper half of a man and the lower half of a goat. In Roman art, ature Satyrs have long goat's horns, while juveniles are often shown with bony nubs on their foreheads. The satyr play was a lighthearted follow-up attached to the end of each trilogy of tragedies in Athenian festivals honoring Dionysus. These plays would take a lighthearted approach to the heavier subject matter of the tragedies in the series, featuring heroes speaking in tragic iambic verse and taking their situation seriously as to the flippant, irreverent and obscene remarks and antics of the satyrs.The only remaining satyr plays are "Cyclops" by Euripides, and the fragments of "The Tracking Satyrs (Ichneutae)" by Sophocles. The groundbreaking tragedy playwright Aeschylus is said to have been especially loved for his satyr plays, but none of his have survived. ΣΕΜ 326100120901 ΣΑΤΥΡΟΣ ΓΟΝΑΤΙΣΤΟΣ - 15
Immerse yourself in the ethereal majesty of the Scottish Highlands with this captivating print, inspired by the iconic Fairy Pools of the Isle of Skye. As the amber glow of golden hour kisses the landscape, a breathtaking melody of colours dances across the canvas, capturing the untamed essence of Scotland's wild beauty. Bold, impasto brushstrokes weave a tapestry of abstract forms, giving life to the rugged terrain. Deep ochres and burnt siennas meld with cool shades of azure and cobalt, evoking the distinct chill of the crystal-clear waters against the warmth of the setting sun. The ochre-graced mountains rise in the background with an almost regal presence, their peaks softened by the abstract expressionist style, making them appear as sentinels overlooking a scene of natural serenity. In the foreground, the tumultuous flow of the Fairy Pools balances the composition, inviting gaze and soul alike to follow the serpentine path of the water through the wild heather and age-worn rocks. A symphony of light and reflection, texture and colour, this piece is an ode to the untamed Scottish Isles, inspiring wanderlust and evoking a sense of peace and awe. Perfect for any aficionado of abstract art or the Scottish landscape, this print will serve as a stunning centrepiece, inviting viewers to lose themselves in the rugged natural splendour of the Isle of Skye, all from the comfort of their own home.

New research is challenging what we thought we knew about our prehistoric cousins, the now extinct Neanderthals. DNA from fossils from a cave in Spain show that Neanderthals are almost twice as old as previously thought, having emerged up to 765,000 years ago. The new timelines force a dramatic rewrite of previously held beliefs of our ancient past.

Imagine the crisp air of the Scottish Highlands and the scenic beauty of Glencoe captured through a vibrant prism of colour and abstract form. This striking print invites you on a visual journey to a serene lochan cradled in the natural amphitheatre of timeless mountains. The foreground bursts with life, showcasing a field of Mountain avens, their ivory petals intermingling with bursts of fiery orange flora. Each flower, with its geometric facets and bold outlines, exudes the avant-garde spirit of Cubism, providing a fresh perspective on nature's delicate wonders. As the gaze drifts towards the middle ground, a mosaic of pebbles and rocks adorns the lochan's edge, whilst the water itself glistens with reflections captured in a kaleidoscope of blues and whites. The print portrays a dazzling interplay of light and texture, inviting the viewer to lose themselves in the intricacies of its patterned surface. Beyond the water, the landscape unfolds in angular swatches of earthy greens, ochres, and shades of slate blue. The grandeur of the Glencoe mountains is reimagined through a tapestry of colour blocks, their majesty rendered with an almost musical rhythm that dances across the canvas. Inspired by the transformative power of Cubism, this print does more than merely depict a scene; it deconstructs and reassembles the essence of Glencoe into an abstract wonder. It is a conversational masterpiece that brings a touch of modernism to any space it adorns, inviting endless contemplation and admiration. Add this scintillating depiction of Highland charm to your collection and let it transport you to a world where nature and art converge in a symphony of geometric delight.
