New Video: Naked Weapon (gladiatrix fights)

Please check out a really good Chinese gladiatrix video clip that I just added to the Video Library.  It's from the movie, "Naked Weapon", and features a number of thrilling and deadly duels by women fighters battling in groups.  The entire movie is available on You Tube if you want to see the whole film.

"Death Of Camilla" painting

I have uploaded a classic painting, "Death Of Camilla", by Maikar Forlag (1927), housed in the Liebig Museum in Frankfort, Germany.  The scene is the Queen Of the Volscians, allies with the Latins against the invading Trojans, from the Aeneid.  She lies dying from a dart in the chest and is attended by her warriors.  Previously, she slew many Trojans with her battleaxe before being ambushed by Aruns, a priest she coveted for his splendid armour. I have placed the painting in my Art Gallery.

New Videos Added

I added some good female swordfights to the Video Library. "Amazons:  Hell Hath No Fury" is a battle between women warriors and pirates.  Next, a rare find, is "Camilla's Last Charge", a video clip from "The Last Glory Of Troy" depicting Queen Camilla's heroic charge against the Trojan invaders of Italia. "Broadsword Stage Fight" is a rehearsal duel but very realistic. "Burial Of The Rats" has a fantastic saber duel between a small number of women defenders against an army of male invaders. I also added the Brittany Spears Gladiatrix clip from her Pepsi commercial. Please check them out.

Jungle Women Sword Fight

I just uploaded "Jungle Women Sword Fight" clip from You Tube.  It's a tough one to find there, so enjoy it by clicking this post's title.  I also added it to my Video Library, along with some others.  This clip, from some unknown foreign movie, depicts two jungle Amazons dueling with swords that look like Roman long swords.  Their fencing technique is above average and they look like they want to kill each other for some unexplanined reason.  The only sad thing is that the uploader clipped the video too short so we don't see the ending.

"Neighorhood Watch" picture

I've uploaded a new picture, "Neighborhood Watch", by Chris Achilleos. The pic is located just above the "Video Library" so you can use the "Table of Contents" to jump right there. I'm dedicating this picture to all those stalwart people who participate in the crime-fighting organizations called "Neighborhood Watch". I happen to be the coordinator of my subdivision's Neighborhood Watch and our motto is "Never Be A Victim".

Amazon Fights: music video

Happy New Year! As a special treat, I have just uploaded a fantastic music video, produced in Russia, that depicts women warriors in a variety of duels. The production has top-notch costumes, weapons, and fight choreography. This a stage production, not film, and I hope to get more videos from DEAvision1.

You may click this post's title to view the "Amazon Fights" music video. It has also been added to my "Women Warrior Videos" library.

"Death Of Camilla" painting

In Roman mythology, Camilla, the warrior queen of the Volscians who were allied with King Turnus of Latium (Italy), came to his assistance when his country was invaded by Aeneas, the Trojan prince who had fled Troy. Camilla slew many Trojans and their Etruscan allies, but finally was killed herself by Aruns, an Etruscan warrior. Aruns was later slain by one the Goddess Diana's archers in vengenace.

I have placed "Death Of Camilla", a painting by Maicar Forlag (1927), now housed in the Liebig Museum in Germany, in the blog's "Art Gallery". Go the "Table Of Contents" for a quick link to the gallery and you will find this painting the fourth one down. This version shows Camilla mortally wounded by an arrow and being attended by her female captains. The painting is of the few known which depicts the death of Camilla.

Phoenix The Warrior: gladiatrix fights

"Phonnix The Warrior" wasn't the most fantastic of women warrior movies, but it was typcial of the 1970-80's futuristic Amazon movie. For those who love gladiatrix combats, please click the title to see Phoenix fighting a few gladiatrices. Not the finest example of female combat, but entertaining.
I've placed this clip into my video library.

"Lost World" gladiatrix fights

Here's an exciting You Tube movie clip from "The Lost World", starring Veronica Marguerite. It depicts Amazons dueling with swords and even has one mass battle. It's non-lethal, but their fencing is not bad. Weapons and armor are spot-on for this sort of thing. Please click post's title to jump to link. I've also placed it in my video library here. Hope you enjoy it and please comment.

"Valkyries Art" video

Please enjoy my latest video, "Valkyries Art", which I just uploaded to "You Tube." Seventeen fantastic pictures of these Norse, women warriors from Scandinavian mythology. The Valkyries were daughters of Odin who swooped down on battlefields, selected the bravest slain fighters, and conveyed them on winged horses to Valhalla. These ladies were truly the "The Choosers Of The Slain". Background music is "The Flight Of The Valkryies" by Richard Wagner.

I have a playlist, also, on "You Tube", under my username, AmazonArtCollector, and all of my videos are in the video library here.

Please click this post's title to jump to the video. I have also placed in the blog's "Video Library".
