Description


Firstly excuse me if my picture may not be perfect but I've had resize and to compress a lot it because the limits of 512KB on Renderosity. The tradition links this mysterious object (in english known as "Emerald Tablet") to Egyptian culture, especially related to Thoth and his epic. I read a lot on the topic and some documents make me think that its origin should be related to ancient Sumerian culture, rather the Egyptians. So my work is a artistic interpretation of this idea. I hope you enjoy it.

Brivisimo! I hope I spelt that right - lol.... you always tell me that and I rarely see you post here. If you ever change your avatar, I won't know who you are - lol... but I recognize your avatar it's got a mysterious look to it like the Monolisa - so nice to see you post something and thanks for stopping in my gallery from time to time. You've got a really nice upload here, I like that tablet, the guys hair catches my eye the most.

Nice work and interesting subject, my friend! I do not agree with you about the origin of the Emerald Tablet! Both the Egyptian and the Sumerian cultures started their history as fully developed societies! Its certain that they got their knowledge from a more ancient culture that we do not know too much about! I like to think that I know who those people were! :) Maybe we can talk more about this subject!

I have done some reading on this to understand your beautiful depiction, and I am amazed at how marvelous and close to the things I've read you have managed to create this! Absolutely stunning work! You've managed to include all the high points of what I've read, and in such a beautiful artistic manner!
