Description
Zeus is from Getty Villa Museum at Malibu, Pacific Palisades,California
Zeus is the King of Gods.He was praised all throughout Ancient Greece. He was regarded with utmost respect. He was the most important god of all the twelve Olympians. Zeus controlled the weather and can order any god or mortal, except the Fates.
Inside the Getty Villa Museum, there are almost 40 exquisite gallery rooms, on two levels, rooms lavishly embellished with marble & gold. Many of these galleries are so spectacular that they would be worth seeing if they were empty. But they are filled with a striking collection of ancient art: mostly marble busts and statues, but also bronzes, vases, murals, pottery and frescoes. Most of this collection dates to around the time of Christ and the Emperors, but some of the items date back as far as 2500 BC. .
