Mountains, Pyrénées Painting

Painting of the Pic du Midi d'Ossau which is a mountain culminating at 2,884 meters and located in the west of the French Pyrenees. The legend of the Pic du Midi d'Ossau : "Up on the mountain there live two twin brothers: John the little one in a happy mood and Peter the taciturn colossus. Shepherds of their state, inseparable mountaineers, they speak to no one. In addition to herding, their mission is to prevent barbarians from invading the valley. One night, while he keeps his sheep and goats, Pierre hears a dreadful roar from the depths. Frightened, the animals fled. Pierre, who feared a cruel joke in the bush, asked Jean to patrol with him around the cabin. Then a goat chases Jean and bites him and throws him to the ground. Pierre rescues his brother, but a witch emerges and takes the shepherds to his underground world. While the twins stay in the underworld, the barbarians attack the valley to destroy everything that lives there, men and animals. The gaves are red. Blood splatters the mountain. Suddenly, before the irreparable is accomplished, John and Peter spring from the volcano, immense, side by side, brandishing their fire swords with which they skewer the invaders. Freezing the feat for eternity, the bushes petrify the twins, which have since become the inseparable Grand Pic and Petit Pic de l'Ossau…" Pyrénées-Passion.info
