With Medusa or Triton Option.

- The Gorgons, the most famous of which is Medusa, are mythological creatures from ancient Greece. Medusa is often depicted as a woman with snakes for hair and a gaze so terrifying that it turns anyone who encounters her to stone.

Medusa was one of the three Gorgons, the other two being Stheno and Euryale. The Gorgons were monstrous creatures with golden wings and brass claws, but Medusa's most distinctive feature was her head covered in snakes instead of hair. Her appearance was so terrifying that anyone who looked into her eyes turned to stone.

Medusa was killed by Perseus, a Greek hero, who used a mirror to avoid her direct gaze and cut off her head. After her death, Medusa's head retained its petrifying power, and Perseus used it as a weapon against his enemies.

The stories of Medusa and the Gorgons are often part of Greek myth and have been the subject of many artistic and literary representations over the centuries.

Triton, in Greek mythology, was a marine deity, son of the sea god Poseidon and the nymph Amphitrite.

He is usually depicted as a man from the waist up and a fish from the waist down (similar to a male mermaid).

He carries a spiral shell that he uses as a trumpet. By blowing into it, he could calm or unleash the waves of the sea. In Greek mythology, he served as a messenger of the sea for his father Poseidon. In some legends, Triton lived in Poseidon's underwater palace with his parents; in other versions, he inhabited a lake near Libya. He is sometimes considered the founder of the Tritons, an entire race of male sea deities named after him.

In short, Triton represents the voice and strength of the sea, a figure that combines power and harmony, typical of the Greek marine deities.

They were handcrafted by a master craftsman from Caltagirone who took care of every little detail to make them, as is clearly evident from the photos, a truly unique object of Calatina art .
