Selected Entry 863 The Tip of Atlantis - Art project drawing ancient stories and creatures. Printed on Giclée Hahnemühle Photo Rag The Tip of Atlantis is the last known landmass of the sunken city of Atlantis. Where the Sirens attempted to lure Ulysses and his shipmates ashore with their enchanting song. A song that drives sailors insane. Ulysses wanted to experience the Song of the Siren. He was tied to the mast by his crew, to prevent him from diving into the sea to swim ashore to his doom. The rest of the crew filled their ears with bees wax, to block out the sound. As they safely navigated past the island unscathed. Today, this magical island, Es Vedra is seen from the coast of Ibiza. It's my favorite place for sitting and watching the sunset.
