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.
"This the illustrious singer was singing to them, and [Ulysses] melted: the salt tears drenching his cheeks flowed down from his eyelids... such was the piteous tear that [Ulysses] poured from his eyebrows." - Homer's The Odyssey (Rodney Merrill translation)
