Atalanta #7 (The Foot Race and the Golden Apples)

Now that Atalanta had grown famous from her heroic exploits, her father, King Schoeneus, tracks her down and invites her back into the kingdom to take her place with the family and wed a nobleman. But Atalanta, having devoted her virginity to Artemis, and having received a prophecy that a marriage would be her undoing (Ovid), wishes to remain a unwedded. She reluctantly agrees, but creates a deadly stipulation for her suitors. She will only wed the suitor who can outrun her in in a foot race. If not, he will be put to death. This does not discourage those who seek the infamy of her hand. But Atalanta is swift footed above all others, and many fall to the spear upon losing. Until one youth names Hippomenes, having fallen in love with her, seeks the aid of Aphrodite. The goddess agrees to help the youth, as she resents Atalanta’s devotion to Artemis, chastity, and refusal of romance. Aphrodite gifts Hippomenes three golden apples from the Hesperides, and during the foot race, as Atalanta gains on him from behind, he drops the apples, which she stops to admire and pick up, thus winning the race and her hand in marriage.

One question one might ask in this scene is “why does Atalanta stop to pick up the apples?” One theory is that the golden apples are gifts from the gods, and any hero who owns them will have further power and renown. Remember-that Hercules 12th labor is to retrieve the golden apples form the Hesperides; no easy feat. Another theory is that Atalanta secretly loves Hippomenes, and chooses to slow down, thereby allowing him to win.       

In this scene we have a great example of a magic boon; a magical object acquired  to aid in the pursuit of a hero’s quest. For example; the Invisibility helmet gifted to Perseus by the nymphs, the sword and thread gifted to Theseus by Ariadne, The armor of Achilles crafted by Hephaestus, and The Argo ship that had the magical power of speech.

This is fanart and the character is from The Golden Apple - an animated series in the making. (The pilot episode is currently in production). It is a fantasy series, based on balkan mythology and folklore. You can find out more on their site and facebook page. It's really cool! And the creator, who had the idea for the whole thing and gathered the people working on it, had a birthday today. And since I'm in this animation course which the stuio that's making the series is doing, I actually know the guy personally and he's really nice. And so today I made a group chat with the other people from the course and was like "hey, let's get him a present or think of some suprise to make for him or something" and we came up with the idea to make a fanart collage for him as a gift from all of us. And this was my contribution :)
