EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and evocative print captures the intense moment from Greek mythology when Achilles drags Hector's lifeless body around the walls of Troy. The scene is taken straight from Homer's epic poem, the Iliad, where Achilles seeks vengeance for the death of his beloved friend Patroclus.
In this image, we see Achilles in all his warrior glory, dragging Hector's corpse behind his chariot with a look of determination on his face. The spear that once belonged to Hector now lies discarded on the ground as Achilles takes his enemy's body on a humiliating journey around the city walls.
The historical significance of this moment cannot be understated, as it marks a turning point in the Trojan War and showcases the raw emotions and brutality of ancient warfare. The clash between these legendary figures symbolizes themes of honor, revenge, and mortality that have captivated audiences for centuries.
Mary Evans Picture Library has beautifully captured this classical tale through their stunning photography, bringing to life one of the most iconic scenes from Greek mythology. This print serves as a reminder of our shared human history and the enduring power of myth to inspire and provoke thought.
