This is an archival print of my Venus painting from my planetary series of 7. This piece was made during the planetary day of Venus (Friday) and intended to act as a Venusian Talis man, harnessing and connecting oneself to the energies of Venus 11”x14.5” limited edition prints on thick archival pearl paper. Orphic Hymn to Venus HEAV'NLY, illustrious, laughter-loving queen,Sea-born, night-loving, of an awful mien;Crafty, from whom necessity first came,Producing, nightly, all-connecting dame:'Tis thine the world with harmony to join, For all things spring from thee, O pow'r divine.The triple Fates are rul'd by thy decree,And all productions yield alike to thee:Whate'er the heav'ns, encircling all contain,Earth fruit-producing, and the stormy main, Thy sway confesses, and obeys thy nod,Awful attendant of the brumal God:Goddess of marriage, charming to the sight,Mother of Loves, whom banquetings delight;Source of persuasion, secret, fav'ring queen, Illustrious born, apparent and unseen:Spousal, lupercal, and to men inclin'd,Prolific, most-desir'd, life-giving., kind:Great sceptre-bearer of the Gods, 'tis thine,Mortals in necessary bands to join; And ev'ry tribe of savage monsters direIn magic chains to bind, thro' mad desire.Come, Cyprus-born, and to my pray'r incline,Whether exalted in the heav'ns you shine,Or pleas'd in Syria's temple to preside,Or o'er th' Egyptian plains thy car to guide,Fashion'd of gold; and near its sacred flood,Fertile and fam'd to fix thy blest abode;Or if rejoicing in the azure shores,Near where the sea with foaming billows roars, The circling choirs of mortals, thy delight,Or beauteous nymphs, with eyes cerulean bright,Pleas'd by the dusty banks renown'd of old,To drive thy rapid, two-yok'd car of gold;Or if in Cyprus with thy mother fair, Where married females praise thee ev'ry year,And beauteous virgins in the chorus join,Adonis pure to sing and thee divine;Come, all-attractive to my pray'r inclin'd,For thee, I call, with holy, reverent mind.11”x14.5” prints on thick archival paper.***These are pre-order prints, they will be ready in 4-6weeks and after that the price will go up. ***Signed it Show more
