The Odyssey Tattoos Every Greek Mythology Fan Needs to See

Christopher Nolan is bringing one of the greatest stories ever told back to the big screen with The Odyssey, and fans of Homer’s legendary epic have plenty of reasons to get excited. For centuries, The Odyssey has inspired artists, writers, filmmakers, and storytellers. Now, it’s inspiring tattoo collectors, too.

The epic journey of Odysseus is packed with imagery that feels almost tailor-made for tattooing. From ancient Greek ships battling Poseidon’s massive waves to the legendary Cyclops, sirens, gods, monsters, and warriors, the world of The Odyssey offers no shortage of unforgettable designs.

With Nolan’s The Odyssey bringing this ancient story to a new generation, we’re expecting to see plenty more mythological ink make its way onto skin. Until then, these tattoos are proof that Odysseus’s journey has never really ended. It just keeps finding new ways to inspire us.
