Atlas is a figure from Greek mythology. He was a Titan, a race of powerful deities that preceded the Olympian gods. He is most famous for being punished by Zeus to hold up the celestial spheres on his shoulders, and thus preventing them from crushing the earth.
Atlas was the son of Iapetus and Clymene, and was the brother of Prometheus and Epimetheus. In the Titanomachy, the war between the Titans and the Olympians, he fought on the side of the Titans and was defeated by Zeus. As a punishment, Zeus condemned him to hold up the celestial spheres on his shoulders for all eternity.
Atlas is often depicted as a powerful and muscular man, holding the celestial spheres on his shoulders. He is also associated with astronomy and navigation, as he was said to have knowledge of the stars and the movements of the heavens.
In some versions of the myth, Atlas was also associated with the Hesperides, who guarded a golden apple tree and had to keep watch over the apples.
Atlas has become a symbol of strength, endurance and stoicism, as he was condemned to hold up the celestial spheres for eternity, he represents the idea of a never-ending burden.
His name is also used in the term "Atlas of maps" which refers to a collection of maps that are bound together in a book or collection.

It was beautifully made & enjoyed by the receiver.

Arrived when expected and the item is beautiful. Looks quality and great detail. It is a gift for someone and I don't think they'll be disappointed with it. Also, I had some concerns about delivery time as I was on a tight schedule but had plenty of communication with the seller and it was delivered by Royal Mail which was reassuring.

This is a gift for my wife who loves owls. This piece of Steampunk art takes the wise bird whom Athena in Greek mythology favours to an entirely new level. I love steampunk art and my wife is quite impressed with this figurine which is well made and quite unique.
