Masks of Dii Consentes
  • Phidias begins creating the Masks, 339 Ab Urba Condita, in preparation for his building of the Statue of Zeus, completed about 430, for the Temple of Zeus at Olympia, and his statue of Athena for the Parthanon. It was his thought to get truly in touch with the spirit of the Gods in order to create masterpiece statuary. "How will I truly know if I capture the essence of the Holy if I do not commune with them?" -- Phidias, Magus Ars Lexus, Nones of Sextilus, 338 Ab Urba Condita
