'See Hellas by air' – a vintage style travel poster featuring a prancing Pegasus in the clouds. Digitally painted by me, inspired by the simplicity of 1940/50s Swiss Air posters (Herbert Leupin in particular).
Hellas is a name with deep meaning, history and even mythological lore. According to legend, the Thessalic-Phthian king Hellen is the eponymous ancestor of the Greek people (called Hellenes in his honour). Similarly, his children and grandchildren are said to be the progenitors of the original Greek tribes: the Aeolians, Dorians, Ionians, and Achaeans (named after sons Aeolus and Dorus, and grandsons, Ion and Achaeus). Beyond this origin story, the name was used to refer to the Greek world at large, which itself shifted over time and encompassed complex cultural spheres. At its zenith, it could be seen to stretch from the borders of Illyria (though not Illyria proper) to the islands of Ionia (and a little beyond).
