Artist's Description
In Judgment of Paris, Lucas Cranach the Elder returned three times to a myth in which all the gods were invited to a wedding—with the exception of Eris, the goddess of discord.
Eris went anyway, and when she was turned away, she angrily cast a golden apple addressed "To the Fairest" into the assembly.
Aphrodite, Hera, and Athena each claimed the apple.
Zeus, asked to mediate, commanded Paris of Troy to decide the winner.
To sway his judgment, each goddess offered him a gift.
Paris couldn’t resist Aphrodite’s promise to give him the most beautiful woman, Helene, for a wife, and her subsequent abduction led to the Trojan War.
(Excerpt from the book "Revisiting the Classics.")
About Don McCunn
I am a photographer/costumer raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. I hold a BS in theatre from the University of Texas at Austin and an MA in theatre from UCSB. For me photography is theatre at 1/60th of a second. It gives me particular pleasure to work with talented models to create original imagery inspired by fine art that has been enjoyed for centuries.
