The pantheon of ancient Greek gods played a major role in Greek art, literature and life. Yet the large number of Greek deities can seem confusing, even frivolous to a modern observer. Enjoy an introduction to visual representations of Greek deities, major and minor, and insights into their personalities and characters. We will meet the major Greek deities and explore their areas of power. We will look at Greek deities as objects of religious devotion in temples and other cult settings, and compare this with representations of deities in scenes of Greek myth, where the gods are actors in a narrative. These comparisons will help provide insight into Greek attitudes towards their gods and their relationship with the divine.
