This drawing is from my series ULYSSES, portraying a moment from Homer's Odyssey. Some of the moments are less iconic and more intimate than typically depicted. The long wandering hero Ulysses (Latin for Odysseus) encounters the gods, drifts aimless on the sea, converses with the dead, listens as tales of his adventures are sung to him, and masquerades as a beggar in his own home. He experiences all this while deeply lamenting lost time, eager to unite with family and friends.
"There in the cavern [Mercury] did not find greathearted [Ulysses], but on the shore he sat, as before he had done, and lamented, breaking his heart with his tears and his moans and insatiable sorrows; over the desolate sea he would gaze while letting his tears flow." - Homer's The Odyssey (Rodney Merrill translation)
