Description


Thanks for all your nice comments on my previous pictures. I hope you enjoy this new image! Les Danaïdes Danaïdes : filles de Danaos Aegyptos et Danaos sont deux frères. A la mort de leur père, ils se querellent pour la répartition des pays dont leur père était roi. Aegyptos propose à son frère de marier ses 50 fils avec les 50 filles de Danaos. Mais un oracle prévient Danaos qu'Aegyptos a l'intention de tuer ses filles le soir des noces. Danaos doit fuir, conquérir et régner sur d'autres pays. Aegyptos, toujours jaloux de son frère, envoie ses 50 fils avec une armée pour se venger. Après un siège de sa ville, et sous la contrainte, Danaos accepte de leur donner ses filles en mariage, mais il donne l'ordre à ses filles de tuer leurs maris pendant la nuit de noces. Bien qu'Athéna et Hermès aient purifié les Danaïdes de leurs crimes, les Juges des Morts les condamnent à aller aux Enfers et à remplir éternellement un tonneau percé comme un tamis... In english (automatic translation) The Danaides Danaides: daughters of Danaos Aegyptos and Danaos are two brothers. On the death of their father, they quarrel over the division of countries which their father was king. Aegyptos offers his brother to marry his 50 sons with the 50 daughters of Danaos. But an oracle warns Danaos that Aegyptos intends to kill his daughters on the wedding night. Danaos has to flee, conquer and rule over other countries. Aegyptos, always jealous of his brother, sent his 50 sons with an army to take revenge. After a siege of his city, and under duress, Danaos agrees to give them his daughters in marriage, but he ordered his daughters to kill their husbands during the wedding night. Although Athena and Hermes have purified the Danaides of their crimes, the Judges of the Dead condemned them to go to Hell forever and fill a barrel pierced like a sieve ...

Le point de vue est excellent et permet de saisir exactement ce dont il s'agit ! Formidable idée d'avoir plaçé le tonneau sur un pont !! Les poses sont excellentes et ces tons verts et rouges sombres rendent bien l'ambiance infernale du Tartare !! Une magnifique et très créative illustration du Mythe !! Bravo !!
