Artwork description

"Tal como Caos, Gaia parece possuir uma natureza forte, pois gera sozinha, Urano, Pontos e as Montanhas. Hesíodo sugere que ela tenha gerado Urano com o desejo de se unir a alguém semelhante a si mesma em natureza. Isso porque Gaia personifica a base onde se sustentam todas as coisas, e Urano é então o abrigo dos deuses (bem-aventurados)".
