From the Tower Window of my Bookhouse

Edoted by Olive Beaupré Miller

Chicago, the Bookhouse for Children Publishers

1921

Artist : Donn Philip Crane

Far away within the wood a troop of Fauns and Sa’tyrs were dancing in a round, while old Syl-va’nus, who was their king, slept in a shady arbor. Gay, rustic, wild-wood folk were these, with horns upon their foreheads and shaggy legs of goats.

New design: Phaethon in Chariot (T-Shirt / Tank Top / Pullover / Long Sleeve) This design was inspired by a 1920 illustration by Donn P. Crane (1878 - 1944). Available on Available on Amazon stores and Redbubble (onelink): http://geni.us/phaethon

Phaethon was the son of the Oceanid Clymene and the sun god Helios in Greek mythology. His name was also used by the Ancient Greeks as an alternative name for the planet Jupiter, the motions and cycles of which were personified in poetry and myth.

Acc. to the greek mythology, the Sun was put in a chariot and everyday Sun-God Helios would drive the chariot all along the sky. That is how the Sun would rise and set. Phaethon was the son the god Helios who secretly took the chariot one day to drive it. However, as he was young and inexperienced, he lost control of the horses and got killed.
