Prometheus

sculpture in gilded cast bronze, weighs 8 tons! by Paul Manship 1934. Yup Prometheus was one of the titans - the dude that stole fire and was chained to a rock by Zeus as punishment- every day to have his liver eaten by an eagle and then grow back. ow. The quote in red granite behind him says "Prometheus, teacher in every art, Brought the fire that hath proved to mortals a means to mighty ends." so said the 6th century greek dramatist, Aeschylus
