Desire Christian introduced in the early 1890s a group of 'mythologicals' based on the illustrations by Walter Crane for the 1887 book, Echoes of Hellas by George C. Warr. Jules Traub has written that Christian literally copied using tracing paper onto glass Crane's illustrations. Warr's book translates select passages from Homer's The Iliad and The Odyssey, as originally performed in a play written by Warr in 1883 entitled "The Tale of Troy."
