Founded in 2018 as a long form conversation on the classical arts, myths, and philosophy, Cave of Apelles is meant to inspire people to participate in eternity. It has its name from Apelles, the greatest ancient painter and a source of inspiration to titans like Rembrandt, Velasquez and Odd Nerdrum. Culture is downstream from philosophy. We are devoted to spreading the message.
