A KTISIS MEDLEY
#ktisis #medley #images #hellenisticart
KTISIS continues to fascinate me.
She seems to be a Stoic concept however most of the images found so far were uncovered literally if they were floor mosaics from houses in Asia Minor and in "Late Antiquity" just over a period of a couple of centuries.
Was there some kind of local revival of Stoicism?
Greek Stoicism not Roman as the Ktisis image often appears as a set along with other personifications of Ideas and Virtues. And the style is very Hellenic.
Anyway here is a medley of every image I have been happen to find online excepting a few of very poor quality.
Some day I will find the missing pieces of data I need and do a full length article or mini ebook
If anyone knows of any frescoes of her let me know ?
