The helmet of a warrior of ancient Greece is the most recognizable and effective piece of historical armor. The standard of power and beauty, a symbol of courage, fortitude and fearlessness, created in the 7th century. BC e., He became the main helmet of all Ancient Greece. Thanks to individual forging, each piece became inimitable and unique. The artist Daria Kolosova called this picture - “Odyssey's Helmet”. Exclusively handcrafted to reflect the essence of its legendary owner. The painting is painted in oil on a natural copper sheet stretched over a wooden frame. Odysseus is the most prominent historical and literary figure in ancient Greece. King of the island of Ithaca, a brave warrior, an inimitable tactician and strategist, endowed with intelligence and ingenuity. The man thanks to whom the Greeks were able to capture the great Troy, after a protracted 10 years of war. A traveler like no other. His image became the prototype of the ideal hero of the ancient past. “Odyssey's Helmet” - an impeccable symbol of masculinity, valor, beauty. Its brilliant, formidable appearance alarms and delights. The bright plume symbolizes power and triumph, standing proudly at the top of the armor. The deep red color demonstrates determination and full combat readiness. Holds a horse comb, beloved by the Greeks, a symbol of light and renewal, the phoenix bird. An amazing mythical creature, capable of being burned up, reborn again, being a fearless example of victory over death. Shining with gold, the Greek lines of the Odyssey gracefully settled on a copper canvas, enriching the warlike image with ancient history. Dazzling copper tints play in the light, filling the picture with sophistication and nobility. “Odyssey's Helmet” performed by Daria looks brutal and stern, to match its famous owner, as if they are both ready for brave travels and vivid historical battles again.

It may be surprising, but Daria Kolosova was born beyond the Polar Circle, in the harsh Arctic climate of Yakutia under the real northern lights. The Eskimos call this phenomenon "The Call of the North Star", the Finns say "Fox Fires", and the Chinese are sure that a child born under the Northern Lights will be talented. And so it happened! Now my paintings are a part of private collections in virtually all countries of the world! Paintings on real copper have become my calling card, since my team and I did a thorough research on copper sheets and developed a unique copper canvas and its coating. The production technology of "copper ingots" is kept secret. My style is pop-realism or "VIP pop art" for those who want a bright popular image in an elite presentation. Dazzlingly bold and chic, they are written for those who look for depth, meaning, something more than just pop-art.
