Throughout history, people have sought to deal with life’s great mysteries, such as the origin of life and the forces that drive the world, by devising stories and creating matching imageries. Motifs mythologiques is an extensive pictorial survey of these imageries: more than 1,500 pictures of mythological scenes, spirits, gods, idols and all sorts of fantastic creatures. They have been taken from cultures from all over the world and are accompanied by short descriptions. Together, these images make for a unique catalogue of one of the most fascinating features of human culture.
