Have a courageous Day of Ares aka Mars' Day aka Tuesday 🗡️

"Ares, destroyer of the Titanes, his father's champion, who lifts a proud neck in heaven, still holding that shield ever soaked with gore."
Nonnus, Dionysiaca 20.35

It's the Day of Ares / Mars' Day / #Tuesday!

Red-figure #VasePainting of #Ares and the #Dioskuroi in the #Gigantomachy. The god and demi-gods attack the gigantes whose backs are turned to us, a major innovation of this vase painting.
Dated to ca. 400 BCE.
