Dionysus was a son of Zeus born to a mortal mother. When Zeus accidentally killed her, he sewed the young Dionysus into his thigh and, when the young god emerged, passed him to the care of the maenads. The cult of Dionysus revolved around intoxication, sex, and savage ritual sacrifice. He was often symbolized by a bull due to his association with the sacrificial animal. Elements of his character are seen in the Roman god of wine, Bacchus.

Hades 📷 Bernini, Gian Lorenzo: Pluto and ProserpinaPluto and Proserpina, marble sculpture by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, 1621–22; in the Borghese Gallery, Rome. Anderson—Alinari/Art Resource, New YorkHades ruled the world of the dead, with which he was sometimes synonymous. The chilly lord of the underworld was among the few Greek gods to come across as dispassionate. He was not the ultimate judge of the souls that wandered his domain nor did he mete out their punishments for sins committed during their mortal lives. He was, however, cunning; he tricked Persephone into eating enchanted pomegranate seeds so that she would have to remain with him for a portion of the year.

Hera 📷 the gods on OlympusThe gods on Olympus: Athena, Zeus, Dionysus, Hera, and Aphrodite. Detail of a painting on a Greek cup; in the National Archaeological Museum, Tarquinia, Italy. Alinari/Art Resource, New YorkThe queen goddess of Olympus, Hera was both sister and wife to Zeus. Though she is often depicted as reserved and austere, she was mercilessly vindictive when it came to her husband’s [many] extramarital adventures. Unfortunately for the objects of Zeus’s godly affections, Hera tended to torment the "other women" (and their offspring, including Heracles) rather than Zeus himself. Her Roman equivalent was Juno.

Hermes 📷 HermesHermes bearing a caduceus, Roman copy, c. 1st century ce, of a Greek sculpture, c. 350 bce; in the British Museum. Courtesy of the trustees of the British MuseumLike many gods in the Greek pantheon, Hermes presided over multiple spheres. He was a pastoral figure, responsible for protecting livestock, and was also associated with fertility, music, luck, and deception. In the Odyssey, he is depicted as a messenger god. His Roman equivalent was Mercury.

Poseidon 📷 PoseidonPoseidon hurling his trident, coin (reverse), 306–282 bce. Diameter 1.1 inches (28 mm). WGS PhotofilePoseidon is best known as the Greek sea god, but he was also the god of horses and of earthquakes. (Thus, many of his temples were inland.) And he had some seriously strange children. Though humanoid, he fathered both the winged horse Pegasus (by Medusa, no less) and the Cyclops Polyphemus, who is blinded by Odysseus and his crew in the Odyssey. His Roman equivalent was Neptune.

Zeus 📷 Ganymede and Zeus in the form of an eagle, antique marble statue; in the Vatican Museum Anderson—Alinari/Art Resource, New YorkWith the assistance of Hades and Poseidon, Zeus overthrew his father, Cronus, king of the Titans, and became the chief deity in a new pantheon comprising mostly his siblings and children. In addition to controlling the weather, Zeus was noted for his chronic infidelity to his sister-wife, Hera. Among the results of his weakness for comely mortal women was Helen of Troy. His Roman equivalent was Jupiter.

#DYK: July 21st is #NationalJunkFoodDay? 

What were some of your favorite childhood treats (I was always partial to a frozen Charleston Chew!)? From the JMM Collections: Abraham and Sylvan Cherney stand behind the counter at "Cigar Box" tobacco and candy shop at 1006 W. Baltimore St., c. 1932. JMM 1988.21.16.

A little history: Abraham Cherney (February 2, 1882-November 1, 1958) trained as a confectioner and musician. He played coronet in the Russian army band and local park bands. He lived in Baltimore and belonged to Chizuk Amuno. He and his family lived on Chauncey Avenue, near the synagogue.

He worked at Russian Marmalade (1916), then Calvert Candy and Tobacco. In 1927, the company went bankrupt and he started in wholesale candy and tobacco (1927-1929). He had a store on Gough Street and in July 1924 he and his wife purchased a retail tobacco shop called the Cigar Box (see Business photofile for related photograph) at 1006 West Baltimore Street under the name of M. Cherney. 

Sylvan worked there when he was 15 years old (1929). The business photo of the Cigar Box is from 1930. Sylvan is on the left, Abraham on the right. The store then moved to 1012 Baltimore Street in the 1930s in a building purchased from Mr. Appeltofft. The business remained at that location until the death of Abraham Chereny under then name A. Cherney and Sons.

Research Library Exercise 4th September 2019

Today we went to the library for a tour. We began on the 3rd floor. We were shown the printers and copy machine and how to use them. We were shown the quiet room and also the photography section on the 5th floor. After this we were given a sheet and asked to find a photographer that we had never heard of and discover their work, their career and anything we consider significant to making them who they are. I was drawn to a couple different black and white photographers. 

Josef Koudelka (HERE, 2019)

As soon as I opened the book about Josef Koudelka, I knew I had found the photographer I wanted to learn more about. The dramatic and punchy black and white images in the book, which is a Photofile published by Thames and Hudson, pulled me in from the first page, to the last. 

Upon further research I learned that Josef Koudelka was born in 1938 in the Moravian town of Boskovice, Czechoslovakia. Between 1956 and 1961 Josef studied at the Czech Technical University in Prague where he received his degree in aeronautical engineering. Simultaneously, he was photographing Gypsies (the Roma, being drawn to their music and culture) in Czechoslovakia and the Prague theatre (for the magazine Divadlo). He spent many long hours with the Roma; their nomadic lifestyle suit him. By 1967 Josef had given up his career to become a full-time photographer. (LensCulture, 2019)

There is a stark honesty in Koudelka’s images. When I look at them, there is no deception. The viewer, at least for myself, can live in the moment with these beautiful people, partake of their rich history and ancestry. I feel their dignity, their community, love and their pride.

Another of my favourite images below.

Carnival in Olomouc, Czechoslovakia, 1968.

In August 1968, two days after Josef returned from capturing images of the Gypsies, the Soviet military forces of the Warsaw Pact invaded Prague. He was there to capture it all. To get the real story of the invasion out to people, his negatives were smuggled out of Prague to the Magnum agency, and published anonymously in The Sunday Times Magazine in New York under the initials P. P. (Prague Photographer) for fear of his family’s safety and his own. In 1969, Josef was anonymously awarded the ‘Overseas Press Club’s Robert Capa Gold Medal’ for those very photographs.

It was Magnum that later recommended Josef to the British authorities. Josef applied for a British 3-month working visa and fled to London. He arrived in 1970. Josef then applied for political asylum and began working for Magnum in 1971. He stayed for over 10years. After that he wandered Europe with little more than his camera. Koudelka sustained himself and his work with grants and awards. He continued to exhibit and publish his works such as Gypsies (1975) and Exhile (1988). 

He received support from his friend Henri Cartier-Bresson, the French Photographer. Josef became a French citizen in 1987 and was finally able to return to Czechoslovakia in 1990. He began working on the project Black Triangle documenting the wasted landscape at tip of the Black Triangle's foothills of the Ore Mountains, located between Germany and the Czech Republic. (LensCulture, 2019)
