Three Llhuroscian Gods

THREE LLHUROSCIAN GODS | circa 1966-99 | Photo by Ann Cady, 2024 | ©2026 Norman Daly Art: The photo depicts an ancient fresco showing three stylized figures adorned with vibrant hues of yellow, blue, and orange. The fresco appears to have aged over time, with visible cracks and a textured surface that suggest its historical significance. The central figure, a god portrayed in an abstract form, wears a flowing garment highlighted with a blue trim, while the background consists of vertical elements that may represent architectural features or curtains. Smaller vertical figures of gods in flowing garments appear on either side of the central figure. The fresco's weathered appearance adds to its archaeological authenticity.
