Description
After more than 2,500 years, the story of Helen of Troy remains one of the world's most electrifying myths about the destructive power of beauty. Much like the ancient Greeks, our own relationship to female beauty is fraught with both desire and danger: we worship and fear it, advertise it yet try desperately to control it. No other myth captures this ambivalence better than that of Helen.
