I can’t stop thinking about this piece by Cy Twombly made in 1977 as a painting in ten parts inspired by Homer’s Iliad. This one is called The Fire that Consumes All Before It, there are 9 other Shield of Achilles; Heroes of the Achaeans; Vengeance of Achilles; Achaeans in Battle; Shades of Achilles, Patroclus, and Hector; House of Priam; Ilians in Battle; Shades of Eternal Night; Heroes of the Ilians.

omg, twombly's work is wild! the way he mixes chaos and history is mind-blowing. that title tho, "The Fire that Consumes All Before It" 🔥🔥🔥

Classical pianist by accident, thinker by choosing, artist by destiny
