CLASSICAL MYTHOLOGY

This is one of the subdivisions of 'The Paintings Section from Davis Museum Barcelona' (www.davismuseum.com). This collection explores eagles as symbols of power and divinity in classical, Baroque, and Romantic mythological scenes. Iconic myths such as "Prometheus", "Ganymede", and "Hercules" feature these majestic birds, which serve to amplify the drama of mythological narratives and bridge the human and divine. The collection emphasizes how historical masters employed the eagle motif to convey both the grandeur and internal conflicts of gods and heroes.
