Medusa: Greek Mythology Gorgon (Decorative Cold Cast Bronze Resin Sculpture / Mask wall mounted 61.5×50 cm / 24.21×19.68 in). The Gorgon / Gorgo was Medusa, the only mortal of the three sisters Gorgones (Mermaids). The daughter of Forcus and Ketos (Phorcys and Ceto), who were brothers to each other, had the same look as her sisters: snakes were stitched in her head, big teeth similar to wild boar, she had copper hands and golden wings, with which she was flying , scintillating eyes and perforant gaze. With her gaze dazzled anyone who dared to look at her, even the gods avoided it except Posidon, who joined her and left her pregnant. The birth of her children was at the time of her death, caused by Perseus, the son of Zeus and Danae. The myth of Medusa evolved to the Hellenistic years, and of course any additions, abstractions, conversions matched the imperatives and ideology of time and place. Thus, Medusa from a primitive monster of pre-monsters was transformed into a beautiful but proud and haughty girl who dared to compare her beauty with Athena and find her superior. And Athena changed her hair to snakes. It was also said that the cause of this transformation was the forced coincidence with the god Posidon in a sanctuary dedicated to Athena. Of course, the wrath of the goddess could not break into a god; in the encounter of the gods with the dead losers the latter come out. HEIGHT: 61.5cm / 24.21 inches. WIDTH: 50cm / 19.68 inches.
