Notes regarding 1992 Mythology Calendar...
THE VALLEJO BESTIARY Stare at a Basilisk and you will die. Club one head off the Hydra and two spring forth to take its place. Supernatural beasts of every description roam through the ancient myths-terrorizing the innocent, destroying the defenceless, and testing the courage of the golden age's greatest heroes and heroines. Now these fantastic beings prance and roar and attack again in the thirteen all-new paintings from Greek Mythology, in Boris Vallejo's 1992 calendar. In an uncanny marriage of painter and subject, Boris captures every razor-sharp point of the, Gryphon's talon, the odious and hungry stare of the Furies, the greedy Minotaur lurking in his labyrinth. Conceived and sketched and painted and given life by our foremost fantasy artist, the nightmare visions of centuries past return to haunt our unsuspecting dreams today.
