Maybe it's the mythology nerd in me, but I think Benoit Blanc would do VERY well in Ancient Rome.

If you want something that's more accurate to the novel and time period in general, BBC is the only choice. If you're looking for VIBES and don't mind a more abridged modern twist, then it's '05.

Daughters of the sea gods Phorcys and Ceto and sisters of the Gorgons. They were said to personify the white foam of the sea and were described as being born old and โswan-bodiedโ.
The second volume for @singomusezine.bsky.social, Chthonic Visions, is out today so I thought I would post my contribution. I illustrated Medea, inspired by the fragments from the play "The Root-Cutters" by Sophocles.
