Gods, Myths & Mortals postcard
A 15cm by 21cm postcard from the Gods, Myths and Mortals exhibition. This postcard depicts the painting 'Boy defending his wounded father', dating from the 19th century and Greek War of Independence, originally painted by artist Ary Scheffer.
Gods, Myths & Mortals brings 8,000 years of Greek civilisation to Melbourne – with each time period celebrating the continuity and transformation which have shaped the Greek world. Carefully curated objects trace the development of tools and technologies to the expansion of trade; the role of myth as a means to understand the known world, to the shift toward monotheism; and the maintenance of identity during foreign rule and the emergence of the Greek state.
