Description
| Legendary heroes are the embodiment of the ultimate human desire: the desire for invincibility, the promise of immortality. In this book, no fewer than 50 heroes appear. Baharam V of Persia, Thor of Norway, Siegfried of Germany, and others triumphed over the most fearsome monsters of all. Some, like Hector of Troia, are outstanding, while others, like the plague-bringer Lilith, are dangerous. The book presents 50 episodes selected from famous myths and legends, from Greek*Roman, Celtic, Norse, and biblical myths to legends of Asian, African, Native American, and Australian Aboriginal peoples, through masterpieces of painting. This is an indispensable book for unraveling the various paintings based on legendary heroes that have captured people's imagination since ancient times.
