Lucifer (Satan) in Hell Bronze Cast Statue

Later Christian tradition came to use the Latin word for "Morning Star" (Venus, Bearer of Light), Lucifer, as a proper name for the devil; as he was before his fall from the tyrant of heaven and to become the Lord of this World, Prince of the Powers of Air and the anti-hero who embodies strength and knowledge. As a result, Lucifer has become a by-word for Satan/the Devil in the church and in popular literature as in Dante Alighieri's Inferno and John Milton's Paradise Lost.

Lucifer, whose light reveals that which must be burnt away, represents the Morning and Evening Star; however here, Lucifer, as Satan, is the reigning fallen angel and king of hell. The blazing torch of the Black Flame burns at the top of his head between his horns, his wings are composed of skulls represents the souls devoured (those whose weakness is not bearable to the Adversarial Spirit). The legs of Lucifer are of the beast, with hooves and a tail of a Dragon. Lucifer rests with trident and upon the Earth.

Artist Derek W Frost gives us his vision of Lucifer as King of Hell with his flaming trident and chained souls. A frightening though beautifully detailed vision in cold cast bronze resin standing nearly 10 inches tall.
