The legends and myths of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome have mesmerized mankind with their stark beauty for thousands of years. Their plots and images, full of harmony and majesty, are the key to understanding works of art from Antiquity to the present day, the foundation of any education. Back in 1914, Nikolai Albertovich Kuhn retold the ancient Greek epic for gymnasium students, and since then no one has managed to surpass him in the beauty and clarity of the syllable. Later Alexandra Alexandrovna Neihardt supplemented his work with stories about the gods and heroes of ancient Rome. Illustrations from the "Picture Atlas of World History", published by the famous Wolf Printing House in 1865, perfectly fit these texts. The artist of the atlas relied on classical images, so don't be surprised if you recognize the best examples of ancient sculpture and painting in his work.
