DESCRIPTION

Hesiod was an ancient Greek poet generally thought to have been active between 750 and 650 BC.

Western authors generally regard him as 'the first written poet in the Western tradition to regard himself as an individual persona with an active role to play in his subject.' Ancient authors credited Hesiod and Homer with establishing Greek religious customs. Modern scholars refer to him as a major source of Greek mythology, farming techniques, early economic thought, Archaic Greek astronomy, and ancient time-keeping.

 

The background again refers to galaxy-inspired images. I used acrylic colors and acrylic spray paint.
