This picture was made by Stephen Reid in Eleanor Hull's The Boys' Cuchulain in 1904 and shows the irish myhtology warrior Cú Cuchulain who was similar to Achilles in that they both possessed immense strength and both had early deaths. I really found this one interesting because I feel little people know about irish mythology.

Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction UK 2020 - Lot #847 - TROY (2004) - Achilles' (Brad Pitt) Screen-Matched Death Scene Tunic
This picture shows Brad Pitt playing Achilles in the movie "Troy" released in 2004. I found this picture very interesting as it shows the classic death of Achilles with an arrow lodged in his heel but with a different twist in setting that director Wolfgang Petersen added.

Pietro Testa | Achilles dragging the body of Hector around the walls of Troy | The Metropolitan Museum of Art
This picture was painted by Pietro Testa in 1648-1650. And although Hector isn't in Ovid's Metamophorses I find this to be a major part in the myth of Achilles and contributes in a big way to his role as a warrior in the myths.

Although Hector isn't a character in Ovid's Metamophorses I still think he plays a vital role in the character Achilles that has been known throughout time. This picture shows the armor that was used for Hector in the movie "Troy" in 2004 that is now in the British Musuem Exhibition.
