Amphitrite, Goddess of the Waves






27" tall
Mixed media sculpture
(This piece is available)

In ancient Greek mythology, Amphitrite was a sea-goddess and wife of Poseidon. Others called her the personification of the sea itself. Amphitrite's offspring included seals and dolphins. Poseidon and Amphitrite had a son, Triton who was a merman, and a daughter, Rhode.
I was intrigued by this character because she is so seldomly portrayed in art or literature.
