The image that comes to my mind is of Picasso's Minotauromachy, an engraving that shows a great monster bull approaching. The philosopher is climbing up a ladder in terror to get away. In the bullring there is a horse, which has been killed, and on the sacrificed horse lies a female matador who also been killed. The only creature facing this terrific monster is a little girl with a flower. Those are two mythic figures - the simple, innocent, childlike one and the terrific threat. You see the problems of modern day.
Joseph Campbell - The power of myth
