The image depicts the legendary Greek Titan Atlas shouldering the weight of the entire universe upon his mighty shoulders. With incredible craftsmanship and attention to detail, this woodcut beautifully captures the essence of ancient cosmology. In this stunning portrayal, Atlas stands tall amidst a backdrop that represents both heaven and hellenic realms. His muscular physique exudes strength and determination as he supports the globe with unwavering resolve. This powerful representation symbolizes not only Atlas' physical prowess but also his role as a pivotal figure in Greek mythology. The intricate details of this woodcut transport us back to an era when myths and legends shaped our understanding of the world around us. It serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with ancient tales and their ability to transcend time.
