USのOVID'S WITHERINGのたぶん2nd。
これは素晴らしいテクデス/プログレデスですね!要所要所でシンフォニックになったりして超気持ちいい。これも今年のお気に入り確定だな。アートワークもカッコいい。

One of our #screenprinting students, Yvonne Guerrier, made this #collage and #monoprint. It’s broadly inspired by stories from Ovid’s metamorphosis. Remember to share images of your #isolationcreations to #putneyschoolofartanddesign so we can see them. #artwork #art #artschool
Perseus and Andromeda (1720) by Hendrick Jacob Hoet (c. 1693–1733) The Bowes Museum. Andromeda is shackled to the rocks, threatened by the monster. Perseus approaches on Pegasus, the winged divine horse. Read all about it in Ovid's Metamorphoses. #MythologyMonday #Dragon
Whew, so I haven't posted on here for a long-ass time but I'm back. Here's my most recent art piece, a DTIYS for ovid___n over on instagram
#GothicSpring Aconitum (Wolf's-bane/Devil's Helmet) is a genus of 250 species of flowering plants belonging to the family Ranunculaceae. In his poem 'Metamorphoses', Ovid tells how the herb comes from the mouth of Cerberus, the three-headed dog that guarded the gates of Hades.
The Amores continue Ovid's love-affair with love poetry, until he is tempted to leave his elegiac Muse for her 'worthier' tragic sister. This moment from Amores 3.1 was brilliantly drawn for me by @BBeverungWrites and it now hangs on my office wall.

"Romeo and Juliet" borrows from the story of "Pyramus and Thisbe" from Ovid's Metamorphoses, and "The Ephesiaca of Xenophon and Ephesus", right down to the parental rivalry, the belief that one of the lovers is dead, and the use of a sleep potion

"...he assumed the semblance of a bull and mingled with the bullocks in the groves, his color white as virgin snow..."-Ovid, Metamorphoses Book II
Zeus, in the guise of a bull, abducts Europa and flees to Crete.
Art by Alexander Rothaug (1870-1946).
Pyramus and Thisbe were a pair of ill-fated lovers. The story is part of Ovid's "Metamorphoses". Because of a family feud they were forbidden to wed or to see each other, so they whispered through a crack in the wall.

2/2 Blood of Adonis is transformed into flowers of the anemone. That crazy Ovid! As imagined within the frame of Venus & Adonis by Hans Bol, whose day is today.
Fall of Icarus. Here, everybody stops to watch -“these must be Gods!”- as Ovid says. Not like Bruegel’s revision! By Hans Bol, born on this day in 1534.
@alnico6221 Sorry for disturbing you, Moriyama Soh-sensei. I've been very interested in Mephismon X's design, and I was curious what the words on the magic circle say. I noticed "Rident stolidi verba Latina" from the Tristia by Ovid, but I'm not sure what the other words are.
Minotaurs feature heavily as #monsters in #fantasy and #fairytales. #Folklore, as described by Ovid, paints the creature as having the body of a man and the head and tail of a bull begot from a rather awkward encounter with a goddess and a sacrificial bull...

Some concepts of the celestial beings making up Ovid. Dario and Deva. Still debating them being white. #originalcharacter #conceptart
LYCANTHROPIC BOTANY (2): Wolfsbane, or aconite, has historically been used as medicine. Ovid describes it as emerging from the dripping saliva of Cereberus. It has been depicted as both a cure and cause of werewolfism.

Echo and Narcissus.
John William Waterhouse.
From Ovid's 'Metamorphoses', the story of the nymph Echo and Narcissus is well known. She was in love with him but he was only in love with his own reflection. She faded to an echo and he turned into a flower.
