    I'm looking for a picture...

    I've tried searching for it every where but i just cant seem to find it.

    I believe it is a picture of a statue; it looks greek or roman. It could also be a painting.

    Its a god or man, being held down by heavy anchor chain links like those on a big military boat. There might be a serpent in there as well. He is hunched over backwards and he has one of those curly beards. I just cannot for the life of me find it. It might be part of a larger stone statue.

    I originally saw it on a thread along time ago for fitness i think haha the captain was something like "gods were built like this, why arent you?"

    Anything would be helpful thank you

    Could it be Prometheus? Check out the picture on the wikipedia page:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prometheus

    Note - that's an eagle, not a snake, are you certain it was a serpent?

    Not this? His situation has been represented by many artists, try typing "prometheus" into Google images and see if you can find it.

    Here's one with curly beard, serpent, and could be a body building poster boy, but no heavy chain -

    Exit, pursued by a bear.
