This is an picture of Zeus as the Greek represented him. He is portraying one of his other attributes, the eagle. I picked it because he looked very powerful. When I saw this picture it told me I am the eagle god. This is what this picture represents to me.
I picked this picture of Zeus because I thought it best represented him showing two of his attribute, the eagle an the lightning. This picture represents one of Zeus’s many a attributes which is lightning. When I saw this image it said to me am the all mighty powerful god. This is a good picture to represent him.
