Flora. Pompeii. 1st century. Roman motives. Fantasy.

Flora. Pompeii. 1st century. Roman motives. Fantasy. Author Bennu, 40 x 60 cm, oil on canvas, 24th April 2021, №173.
Flora is a Roman goddess of flowers and of the season of spring – a symbol for nature and flowers (especially the may-flower). While she was otherwise a relatively minor figure in Roman mythology, being one among several fertility goddesses, her association with the spring gave her particular importance at the coming of springtime, as did her role as goddess of youth. She was one of the fifteen deities who had their own flamen, the Floralis, one of the flamines minores. Her Greek counterpart is Chloris.
Pompeii was an ancient city located in what is now the comune of Pompei near Naples in the Campania region of Italy. Pompeii, along with Herculaneum and many villas in the surrounding area (e.g. at Boscoreale, Stabiae), was buried under 4 to 6 m (13 to 20 ft) of volcanic ash and pumice in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79.

Frosty Freshness and Solitude. Author Bennu, 40 x 60 cm, oil on canvas, 27th October 2020, №162.

A white fictional landscape that is painted spontaneously based on images that instantly came to mind. Late non-sunny autumn brings us closer to winter. Charming winter nature with white bright snow, freshness, velvety fir trees is beautiful. In this silence, in solitude with nature, man feels calm and inner harmony. Maybe someone knows where such a landscape is?
