Contemporary work of the new, modern, Fine Art. Oil painting on canvas.

Dolphins, subject-specific Cetacea (spermacetis) named, touches the heart of the people already since thousand of years. From artists and Gods as it were loved, the clever sea inhabitants held, already a long time ago, move into the forming art, and of course, into the religion.

Whoever visits the Oracle of Delphys, once will find the words about the entrance: Gnothi Seauton - recognizes yourself.

The hunt for dolphins is immoral, and the human being, that plots the annihilation of the dolphins so willingly, can approach no more the Gods with welcome sacrifices, still touches the altars with pure hands but he/it brings all those to curse, that lives under a roof with him/it. Because as well, like the murder at people, hates the Gods the death sentence for the kings of the depth...
Oppian, (2.Jh.n.Chr.), Halieutica


Dolphin companies are extraordinarily complex, and until ten generations live together. If that also would be with the people so, were Leonardo da Vinci, Faraday and Einstein at the life there....is it not conceivable, that the brain of the dolphin stores information, whose quantity equals the thousand tons of books in our libraries?
Jalbalkow, Russian Delfinologe, 1970.


In the world of the mammals, there are two summits, that one is the summit Homo Sapiens and the other of the summits the Cetacea.
Horace Dobbs, On the tracks of the wild dolphins. 1977.


Okeanus - this however the origin is and the beginning of all things.
Homer, Ilias 14 chant 246.
