This picture gives Hades a
more humanistic quality. It also depicts his
favorite pet Cerberus, the three headed dog. I
chose this picture because it was the only one to
show Cerberus which I think helps describe him
better.
Hades
This photo of Hades I think shows his evil side. It also
really makes him look like the lord of the dead. I
chose this picture not only because it looks really
cool but when you think of Hades you think of this
really evil looking dude and I think this picture
really captures that.

I think this picture of Hestia is portraying her friendly nature. I chose it because it
looked like an authentic picture from ancient Greece. This picture I feel really
shows her friendly almost charitable nature. This image is one of the most
authentic picture I have found.
Hestia
This image I think shows her control over the hearth
which is ,in a sense a campfire. I chose this
picture because it isn’t just like a total stereo
type of a God I think it gives her the feel of being
a real person. I also think that this picture makes
her look really cool. I also chose it because it
was done by a little known artist.

This photo of Hera shows her generosity because
she’s holding out a bowl for someone. It also
shows her sacred animal on the back of her
chair, I believe it’s supposed to be a peacock. I
chose this image because it looked like it was
really made in the time the web site stated.
Hera
This photo shows her motherly characteristic. I
chose this photo because it shows Hera’s two
sacred animals the sow and the peacock. This
picture also gives her a more natural look.
This photo brings together all of the things
that describe Hera.
