This image shows a large wooden sculpture of Atlas, the Greek Titan who was condemned to hold up the heavens
MomentThis image shows a large wooden sculpture of Atlas, the Greek Titan who was condemned to hold up the heavens. The sculpture is made of many individual pieces of wood, clearly showing the grain and rings of the wood. Atlas is depicted with defined musculature, his arms raised above his head, straining to support an unseen weight. His head is turned downwards, and his expression appears pained. He is wearing a decorative belt or loincloth with a fur-like texture carved into it. The sculpture is positioned outdoors, under a dark overhang, with glimpses of a blue sky and green foliage visible through wooden framing to the left. The wooden framing appears to be a dark reddish-brown color. The sculpture is located in the city of Lendži, Latvia.
