Publisher's Synopsis
"[This book] is a treasure house of art dedicated to the feminine power. Each artwork is intended to be savoured not just for its inherent beauty but also as sacred art. A full color collection of paintings by the renowned British artist Stuart Littlejohn, this book serves as a celebration of all that is great yet ignored, of all that is powerful yet shunned, from goddesses to warriors, from mystics to the mythic. Each painting is presented as a full-page image and is accompanied by some brief information about the mythology, history, or legend surrounding the character. This is intended to provide a basic understanding of the painting's background, imagery, and symbolism, and to act as an entry point for the reader's further research. It may also act as breviary, and even as part of a devotional service to the living Goddess in her myriad and age-old forms."--
