The King's Men - Chapter Seventeen (19)

Day: Friday, April 26th / 27th* Time: 3:40 AM EST

Kevin gestures feebly to Neil, so Neil presses the bandage back into place over swollen, reddened skin. Neil drops his hand back to his side and clenches his fingers into a fist to hide the excited tremor. He doubts either Kevin or Andrew notice; they are too busy staring each other down. At length Andrew smiles, slow and cold. It is the first time he's smiled since coming off his drugs, and Neil can't help but stare. "Now it's getting fun," Andrew says. "Finally," Kevin says, equal parts exhaustion and exasperation.

Andrew crosses the room to stand at Neil's side and catches Kevin's chin in his hand. He turns Kevin's head to inspect the new ink. "He is going to be furious." "Fuck him," Kevin says, sliding a little further down the door. "Fuck all of them. Waste of time to be angry. They should be afraid." "Hell hath no fury," Andrew says.

The Judgment, focusing not on Paris' view of the goddesses, but of the reverse. Specifically the initial moment of appearance, because I wanted to focus on something that's there from some of the earliest representations to the latest that we have of the Judgment; Paris' fear.

The earliest surviving pieces that show this is visual (we have no surviving early, full textual version of the Judgment), and among many of these vase paintings you will see Paris running away. In two of our latest (textual) versions, Ovid's Heroides and Lucian's Dialogue of the Gods, Paris' fear makes appearances as well, and would be our only textual surviving sources for it, too.

Some more notes under the cut!

An example of that type of "Paris fucking booking it out of there when Hermes and the goddesses appear to him" vase painting.

Lucian: Hermes: `These dames,' good Paris, are Hera, Athene, and Aphrodite; and I am Hermes, with a message from Zeus. Why so pale and tremulous? Compose yourself; there is nothing the matter.

Ovid: "I was mute, and chill tremors had raised my hair on end, when “Lay aside thy fear!” the winged herald said to me [...]"

Paris' only instrument that you see in visual arts (and the accessory he's shown with most often), is a lyre; some later textual sources have him playing pipes at the Judgment, to lean into the "pastorality" of the scene, and Paris as a shepherd. I've gone with a Bronze Age Hittite lute, to keep the string instrument angle. It was a two-stringed instrument and would, compared to a lyre, be easier to care for out in the wilderness!

why don’t they make posters like this anymore

[notacluedo]

Hey, here's the full set of the brand new Disco Elysium pics!

Prints are available, and maybe these work well in poster format (which inprnt started doing a while ago)?

I'm sad I didn't get to draw any cars, would be nice to do 1 more, but I need to move on... Also, there has been a promo on all summer at inprnt that might end soon, so these are at 35% off right now!
