on the cover:
Heroic Perseus, after decapitating the grotesque head of Medusa, comes to the rescue of fair Andromeda. In Paolo de Matteis’ painting (circa 1710), depicting a fierce sea monster (a prototype for Steven Spielberg’s Jaws?), Greek mythology is wildly imagined and re-interpreted. From the Samuel H. Kress Collection, via Bridgeport’s Discovery Museum, now part of Fairfield University’s permanent collection of Renaissance and Baroque paintings.
