Description
Medusa as she was changed from a woman to a gorgon,
Daphne as she became a laurel tree to escape the relentless attentions of Apollo,
And Arachne who for her boasts was changed into a spider.
The moral of the story would seem to be: avoid the attention of gods.
Drawn for the trading card set 'Classic Mythology I' from Perna Studios.
Hi. I like the tragic look on Medusa. You must read Lauren J. A. Bear's debut novel, Medusa's Sisters (https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=Ne6aEAAAQBAJ), and listen to the unabridged narration by Zura Johnson and Taylor Harvey (https://play.google.com/store/audiobooks/details?id=AQAAAEBC7VqtCM). The Greek mythology-inspired novel is told from Stheno's and Euryale's points of view, showing readers the events in the sisters' lives, from their difficult childhood, the cruelty Poseidon and Athena subject poor Medusa to, the three sisters' transformation into Gorgons, and the aftermath of Medusa's death. Trust me, you'll be so emotionally affected by the plot that you'll never read the Greek myths same way ever again.
You're welcome.🐍🐍🐍
