Gallery The dawn of Prometheus |  | In greek mythology, the Titan Prometheus steals the fire to the Sun to grant it to humans. Fire is seen as a symbol of science, enabling men to dominate their environment.
Prometheus is punished by Zeus. He is bounded in Caucasus and an eagle devours his liver each day. During the night, his liver regenerates and he suffers endlessly.
Prometheus is here turned in front of the sun, looking as his coming torment. |
