Artist: Mukul Pipalia - View Collection Title: Fata Morgana © 2009 Description: Fata Morgana, also known as Morgan le Fay, was a fairy enchantress skilled in the art of changing shape. In one traditional story she was King Arthur's sister and learned many of her skills from Merlin the Magician. A special type of complex mirage, one that sometimes gives the impression of a castle half in the air and half in the sea, is named after Fata Morgana. She was known to live in a marvelous castle under the sea. Sometimes the enchantress made this castle appear reflected up in the air, causing seamen who mistook it for a safe harbor to be lured to their deaths.A recent watercolor on paper. 14.5 H x 11 W Submited: Nov 26, 2005 Category: Traditional Art Category: Paintings Image Size: 49,380 Bytes Resolution: 492 x 650 Total Views: 338
