Atlas Greek Titan Bearer of The Sky Miniature Figurine Cold Cast Bronze & Resin Statue Sculpture

In Greek mythology, Atlas is a Titan condemned to hold up the heavens or sky for eternity after the Titanomachy. Atlas also plays a role in the myths of two of the greatest Greek heroes: Heracles (Hercules in Roman mythology) and Perseus. According to the ancient Greek poet Hesiod, Atlas stood at the ends of the earth in extreme west. Later, he became commonly identified with the Atlas Mountains in northwest Africa and was said to be the first King of Mauretania (modern-day Morocco and west Algeria, not to be confused with the modern-day country of Mauritania). Atlas was said to have been skilled in philosophy, mathematics, and astronomy. In antiquity, he was credited with inventing the first celestial sphere. In some texts, he is even credited with the invention of astronomy itself. Veronese design – Incredible DetailDimensions (approximately):Height: 9 cm (3.54 inches)Width: 4 cm (1.57 inches)Depth: 4 cm (1.57 inches) Weight: 64 gr (0.14 lbs) Material: Cold Cast Bronze & ResinMADE OF HIGH QUALITY  HEAVY ART COLD  CAST  RESIN  & BRONZE POWDER.
