Since their appearance in great masterpieces of Greek mythology such as The Labors of Hercules, the Argonautica and the Iliad, the Amazons have always been described as a group of female warriors and hunters who surpassed men in agility and physical strength, archery, horsemanship, and combat arts.
Following this literary tradition, Ciruelo depicts in this fantastic drawing an Amazon warrior armed and ready for battle.
