I have a feeling that Cyrus is going to end up the cookie monster.
It seems that many of the images I've found all do double duty as cyaxares and Cyrus TG. Or does it just appear that way?

There can be some modern imaginary pictures of him but some older pics can be find too, if we consider Keykhosrow in Shahnameh and other Persian cources as the same Greek Cyaxares.

Thank you all : )
/gives some delicious cookies to Red Clay
Also, Cyrus, could you give me links or pictures of both the modern imaginary pictures and the older pictures ? I'm gonna tattoo my right arm too, and I want it to blend in with the tattoo on my left arm, so I need some inspiration.
Again thank you.

"And I'm talking about Cyaxares/Huyakhshtara, king of Media."
Could he also be called "the King of the Mediteranean?" In that case he might well be Ottoman?

I don't know what you're talking about, and how did the Ottomans get involved in this ?

It seems that internet representaions of this leader are lacking? Or is it, as the words of "Peggy Lee" once mouthed; "Is that all there is?" "Is that all there is? Is that all there is my friends? Then let's keep dancing! Let's get out the booze, and have a ball?"...
So, just for you all!

Thanks, brother. But since I want a close-up photo of his face, I'll stick to Red Clay's picture.
Thanks everybody, hopefully you'll see his face on my shoulder together with the a map of Kurdistan in some months, which will fit very well with my tattoo of Cyrus the Great and map of Iran on the other shoulder.
