Apollo - Greek Roman God of music, poetry, art, prophecy, truth,healing, sun and light - Floral and Meander design - Ceramic Vase Condition: New, Handmade in Greece. Material: Clay Height Size: 15 cm - 5.9 inches Width: 9 cm - 3,55 inches Weight: 300 g The most distinctive depiction of the Apollo. The god wears a white sleeveless chiton, which is fastened with pins at the shoulders, and a red himation wrapped around the lower part of his body. He sits on a cross-legged stool. A myrtle wreath garnishes his carelessly bound hair. He performs a libation by pouring wine out of a bowl with his right hand, while holding a seven-stringed lyre, whose sound-box is made of a turtle-shell, in his left hand. A raven looks on. This scene could allude to the myth of King Phlegyas's daughter Koronida, who was in love with Apollo, although some scholars believe it is simply a bird with prophetic powers.
