Description: | The nymph Clytie is shown wandering through an idyllic landscape after falling in love with the sun god Apollo. According to Greek legend, Apollo then turned her into a sunflower (which moves its head to face the sun). Lush blue-green plains extend far into the distance, where gigantic mountains rise into the sky. John Martin spent his early life in the North East. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East art movement art North East artists people | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
