It's the Day of Hermes aka Mercurius Day aka #Wednesday! 🐏

For #AllHallows, have a relief of #Hermes in his role as #psychopomp. Hermes guides the souls of the dead to the underworld. Here, he takes the hand of a dead woman named Myrrhine on the way down to Hades.

I spent all day scrubbing gravestones across three different cemeteries.

Starting to think maybe the anglosphere is onto something with the whole spooky candy costume thing.
