Just like the Shield of Achilles, this collection unveils stories of epic battles and heroic feats that have shaped our past. Transport yourself to ancient Greece as Medea and Jason embark on their daring quest to steal the Golden Fleece. Feel the thrill as they navigate treacherous waters and outsmart mythical creatures in their pursuit of glory. From there, let your gaze wander towards Namuka Island in Fiji, where pristine beaches meet crystal-clear waters. Marvel at its beauty while contemplating an Islamic portrayal of Adam and Eve - a reminder that diverse cultures coexist harmoniously across our globe. As you continue your journey through time, encounter the busts of seven principal heroes from the Trojan War. Their stoic expressions tell tales of valor and sacrifice that echo throughout history. Next, behold the grandeur of Babylon's ancient cityscape. Let its towering structures transport you back to an era when empires rose and fell with each passing century. But it doesn't stop there; Ferrario takes us further east to Solor Island's Queen Naba Leba alongside a Malay girl from Timor. Witness their regal grace as they embody cultural richness beyond borders. Traveling westward again brings us to Edward and Eleonor's wedding in Castile during 1254 - a celebration steeped in tradition, love, and unity amidst medieval times' tumultuous backdrop. Prepare for yet another shift as we delve into Chinese history through portraits capturing emperors, empresses, and famous men who left indelible marks on their nation's legacy. Finally, cast your eyes upon Saint Helena Island during the early 19th century - a remote paradise known for its isolation but also harboring untold stories waiting to be discovered by intrepid explorers.
