Aristophanes presented a story about soulmates in The Symposium by Plato. It states that humans originally consisted of four arms, four legs, and a single head made of two faces, but Zeus feared their power and split them all in half, condemning them to spend their lives searching for the other half to complete them.
Does anyone happen to have a credit for this image? I’m obsessed with it and want it on my wall.
EDIT: Found! (Thanks Loren!) The artist is Annika Bäckström and you can find more of her work here.
