Perseus Armed by the Nymphs

Perseus armed by the Nymphs. The Hesperides are the nymphs of evening and golden light of sunset. From the Hesperides he received a knapsack (kibisis) to safely contain Medusa's head.

Nathaniel Hawthorne (July 4, 1804, May 19, 1864) was an American novelist, dark romantic, and short story writer. His, A Wonder-Book for Girls and Boys, first published in 1851, is a children's book in which he retells several Greek myths.
