KRIKOR_JABOTIAN

E-mail Designer

We summoned them all, Urania, Polyhymnia, Erato, Calliope and many others. And how beautiful was it to see all these picturesque muses come our way, sharing and spreading their mysterious yet playfully addictive nature, blowing life into those proud Roman statues, and wind into other Greek ones. This is the dawn of gold, the age of gods, climbing down to rule the earth. A shy statuette with a constancy of a cloud staring at another proud one there, a warrior in her armor fighting for her freedom. The queen and mother of gods up on her throne, watching over her hive, while the goddess of the underworld, daughter of Zeus and Demeter, bites into her pomegranate. Beholding the might, in its dawn of grace, in its beauty and light, in its pride and glory. The tale never ends.
