Neoptolemus


ACEO, 2.5 x 3.5 inches, watercolor and gouache, 2009.

In mythology, Neoptolemus was the son of Achilles and Deidamia. The seer Helenus revealed to the Greeks that the Trojan war could be won if certain conditions were met, one of which was Neoptolemus joining to fight in the war. He was the slayer of Priam, King of Troy as well as his youngest daughter, Polyxena, whose throat he slit on Achilles grave after he had appeared as a ghost demanding a sacrifice before they leave to return home.
