Battle of the Lapiths and Centaurs by Michelangelo Magnet

Battle of the Lapiths and Centaurs by Michelangelo Magnet

Battle of the Lapiths and Centaurs (c. 1492) is a vintage Renaissance Era fine art relief. A marble stone sculpture sculpted by Michelangelo. The Lapiths are a legendary people of Greek mythology whose home was in Thessaly, in the valley of the Peneus and on the mountain Pelion. They were an Aeolian tribe. Like the Myrmidons and other Thessalian tribes, the Lapiths were pre-Hellenic in their origins. The genealogies make them a kindred people with the Centaurs: in one version, Lapithes and Centaurus were said to be twin sons of the god Apollo and the nymph Stilbe, daughter of the river god Peneus. Lapithes was a valiant warrior, but Centaurus was a deformed being who later mated with mares, from whom the half-man, half-horse Centaurs sprang. Lapithes was the eponymous ancestor of the Lapith people, and his descendants include Lapith warriors and kings, such as Ixion, Pirithous, Caeneus, and Coronus, and the seers Idmon and Mopsus.

Great way to be remembered by sister or simply express love to her, birthday or otherwise. Pretty fridge magnet for a daily reminder and bond between sisters. The printing is clear but be careful to magnify the name at bottom
