A companion to my prompt for June's RPG Blog Carnival, this page provides links to several works of art in the public domain depicting giants, cyclopes, and other large folks that I think could work for a post about cyclopes, ettins, hill giants, and/or ogres. Most of these, you will see, I found on Wikimedia; I did not use every picture I found on pages like Category:Paintings of Polyphemus, so there might still be some value in you looking there. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Please also consider reading "How I Find Pictures For My Posts," my guide for general advice about finding public domain or creative commons art.
