Ancient Amazon Queen, who fought against Achilles in the battle for Troy
Real Bronze, casted in US!
Penthesilea, in the Greek mythology, was a proud courageous Amazon queen, a female fighter, which overcame the odds in many glorious battles. The glamour of her beauty and her fierce fighting power impressed her (mostly male) enemies.
In the fight for Troy she fought courageously against Achilles, by which she was slain. But in a rare twist of faith, Achilles lost his heart to Penthesilea after he removed her helmet and was stunned by her shear beauty.

shes not in any of the epic poems we have; not even the Aeneid. Fragments of the epic cycle have been put together to show Penthesilea

In which book of the Iliad does she appear? I have reached book 17 and still there is no mention of her.

Beautiful sculpture! Any opera house should have one.
Where can I purchase one of the beautiful Penthesilea sculptures?
