RMDFA1XA–Ancient Greek Titan Atlas Holding the Heavens Bronze Armillary Sphere Sculpture in Rockefeller Center, NYC, USA

RF2H5CXT7–Atlas was the Titan god who bore the sky aloft. Atlas was a leader of the Titans in their war against Zeus and after their defeat he was condemned to carry the heavens upon his shoulders, as seen here in this statue, known as the Farnese Atlas, a 2nd-century AD Roman marble sculpture of Atlas holding up a celestial globe. Probably a copy of an earlier work of the Hellenistic period, it is the oldest extant statue of Atlas. The sculpture is at the National Archaeological Museum of Naples, in Italy.
