Helen on Walls of Troy

Helewn on the walls of Troy painting Lord Leighton In Greek legend, Paris was a Trojan prince, the son of Priam and Hecuba. When Eris, the Greek goddess of discord, was not invited to the marriage of the Greek leader Achilles, she threw a golden apple into the festivities, with the words 'for the fairest' written on it. The goddesses Hera, Aphrodite, and Athena each claimed the apple, and Zeus, the king of the gods, had Paris choose which one should get it. Hermes, the messenger god, acts as a guide, arranging the meeting between the goddesses and Paris. Aphrodite promised Paris Helen, queen of Sparta, if he picked her, and so he did. The result was the Trojan War as the Greeks fought to return Helen to Menelaus, the ruler of Sparta. In this illustration by Lord Frederic Leighton, a 19th-century British painter who was considered the leader of the Victorian school of classical paibnting, Helen is shown in Troy with two of her companions pacing the walls of the city while the battle rages between the Greeks and Trojans.
