"And so it was agreed, Persephone would spend the warmer seasons on Mt.Olympus with her mother Demeter, and would return to her husband Hades in the Underworld during the harsh winter months." ~Edith Hamilton Mythology
Thank you very much Donna I have been wanting to do this one for a long time, but the staging proved problematical. I couldn't figure out how to fit in all the visual elements I wanted, finally I stumbled across this stairwell while going through architectural stock, and it proved to be the perfect solution. Its really nice when things come together like that. Poor Persephone, given the season I suppose I really should have shown her going up the stairs, but that wouldn't have worked nearly as well or provided the emotional impact that this one has.
The image of the stairs came from Hearst Castle, San Simeon California. I can't remember exactly what site I got the specific picture from, but images of that particular architectural monstrosity are not difficult to find. Thanks for the interest.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
