Original artwork description:

The painting refers to the classical image of St. George the Victorious. The idea of this painting is about the futility of fighting your own "monsters" or "skeletons." That is why the image as a whole is more reminiscent of the image of the Rugby player than of St. George and the snake. Even the tournament spear refers to the image of Don Quixote and his fight against the windmills, emphasizing the absurdity of what is happening. Also, the painting itself is called "Dagon fighter" which is a direct reference to the myths of Cthulhu, as in any Lovecraft story that does not have a happy ending, which once again emphasizes the main idea of the painting. This painting is about exposing the "dark" side of the personality, motivating to think about your own fears.
