Image description

Helios, personification of the sun in ancient Greek mythology. One of a cycle of six woodcuts that follow the introductory 'Cave of Eternity' print. All six make reference to the legend of Persephone as it is retold in Ovid and depict the Greek deities Nox, Helios, Neptune, Venus Marina, Pluto, and Persephone, respectively symbolic of night, day, age, youth, death, and fertility. Here Helios is shown standing on rainbow, crowned with the sun's rays and holding a jawbone in his right hand.
