Film

At the top of the Empire State Building, Zeus meets Poseidon, accusing Poseidon's demigod son, Percy Jackson, of stealing Zeus’ master lightning bolt.

What it is made of

The source

Gods, Monsters and Meanders

The archaic gorgoneion seen head-on: tongue out, fangs, snakes knotted at the belt. Unicursal labyrinths from coinage, square and circular, and the meander fret that spawns them. Plus a very specific repertoire of scenes: the eagle at Prometheus's liver, Cerberus with two heads rather than three, Charon leaning on the pole of his boat, the spindle and the cut thread of the Moirai, the frontal owl with its crescent moon and the letters ΑΘΕ, the laurel crown and the fluted Doric shaft with no base.
