EDITORS COMMENTS
This reproduction of Ivan Yakovlevich Bilibin's painting, "Zmey Gorynych," showcases the enchanting and terrifying image of the Slavic three-headed dragon. Dating back to 1912, this masterpiece of Russian mythology and folklore depicts the dragon in all its splendor and ferocity. With three serpentine heads, each emitting tongues of flame, the dragon's menacing presence is undeniable. Its massive, green body is supported by two powerful back paws, while its small, clawed front paws rest on the craggy cliffside. According to one Slavic legend, Zmey Gorynych was the dragon slain by the brave hero Dobrynya Nikitich. The dragon resided in the cliffs, terrorizing the surrounding lands with its fiery breath and insatiable hunger. Despite the danger, Dobrynya bravely approached the beast and engaged in a fierce battle. With cunning and strength, he was able to defeat the dragon, saving his people from its wrath. Bilibin's painting captures the essence of this legendary encounter, transporting us back to a time when mythical creatures roamed the lands and heroes embarked on epic quests. The painting's intricate details and rich colors bring the story to life, making it a must-have for any collection of Slavic mythology or folklore.
