The story of Deucalion begins with Zeus, who, disgusted by human evil, decides to bring a great flood upon mankind to punish them all, thus ending the Bronze Age. In his rampage, the rivers overflowed, the sea flooded the coastal plains, swallowed the foothills, and all mankind was wiped out - except for Deucalion and his wife Pyrrha, who were the only few survivors. They were saved by a warning given to them by Deucalion's father Prometheus, so they built a large chest in which they lasted nine whole days. The pair of survivors find themselves on Mount Parnassus – the only place the flood did not reach – and plead with Zeus to spare them. At the same time, he asks the goddess Themis for advice. The goddess of lawful order between humans and nature secretly advises them to "throw the bones of their great mother behind them". Deucalion and Pyrrha understood "mother" as Gaia - the mother of all living things, and "bones" as stone. So they threw stones over their shoulders, which soon began to lose their hardness and take on shapes. They gradually gained weight and the beginnings of a human form appeared. The parts that were soft and moist became skin, the rock veins became human veins, and bones grew from the hardest parts of the rocks. Stones thrown by Pyrrha spawned women. Men were born from the stones that Deucalion threw. And so the planet was once again filled with pure people who, relieved of the sins of their predecessors, could start a new era of humanity. This plate depicts stones thrown from the hands of Deucalion and Pyrrha. The decorative edges of the work represent a great flood followed by the formation of new life. The story of Deucalion represents the rebirth of humanity relieved of the sins of its ancestors and the legacy of our great mother Earth. This plate is part of the Metamorphoses Collection.
