Oil on canvas, 26” x 26” The Third Voyage Of Sinbad Sinbad’s ship was blown off-course to the Mountain of the Zughb (a hairy ape-like folk). The crew found shelter in a castle. The castle belonged to monsters, which in turn ate the fattest travelers. Sinbad made a rift and escaped out to sea, where he encountered “fishes in the shape of cows”. (Possibly the now extinct Hydrodamalis gigas, also called “Steller’s Sea Cow”.)
