"Prometheus in Chains" (1905) is an etching by Czech artist Frantisek Kupka. It depicts a group of nude figures standing in front of a bull. The figures appear to be linked together by their hands, perhaps symbolizing the interconnectedness of humanity. Kupka's artwork often explored themes of mythology and spirituality. The use of etching, a technique where the artist scratches into a metal plate to create an image, adds a textured quality to the work.
