Cassandra Five takes liberties with the form of the Lion Gate at Mycenae, its threshold and monolithic stone lintel. The intention was to pastiche the drawings/paintings of the Bronze age as seen in frescoes, to replace the missing lion heads and to represent the unfortunately gifted Cassandra with a central motif.
Oil on canvas.
