Birth of Asclepius ============================================================ Who was Apollo and what role did he play in the history of ancient Greece? Yes, yes, exactly in history - they had no other history except mythology)) In addition to the fact that Apollo was the patron of the city of Troy and participated in the Trojan War, and was also the patron of the city of Delphi, countless myths and legends are associated with him: the Delphic Oracle, the Pythia, the Sibyls, Cassandra, the battle with Python, Apollo and Daphne, Apollo's divine son Asclepius (Aesculapius), the Children of Niobe, Apollo and Marsyas, Apollo and Hyacinth and many others. In addition, he is the leader of the muses, the patron of the arts, a prophet, an archer, a handsome man, and what's more! The standard of male beauty!!)) And... the most unfortunate, probably, of all the Olympic gods... At the same time, Apollo and his tragic life are super mega popular subjects in art - there are so many sculptures and paintings on this topic that you will find several in any museum - therefore - you need to get acquainted with the main subjects!))

I am convinced that in order to truly UNDERSTAND art, you need to know history, mythology, culture. Because Art always reflects society, that's one. And two - it doesn't have to be liked or disliked!!! (What a revelation, right?????) You just need to understand it in order to know how society has changed over the centuries and understand why it is what it is now))) It's like with IT or finance - you may not like it and you may NOT be an expert. But you MUST have basic knowledge, just to fully live in the modern world. Same here!???? #greekmythology #olympicgods #apollo
