Actaeon and his Hounds
Actaeon Attacked by His Hounds is a 2nd Century Roman work.
They're snapping awfully close to his package. Oh, my.
Des boucles dans ses cheveux aux chiens à ses pieds, une sculpture magnifiquement détaillée d’Actaeon. Rome finally equals the ancient Greeks in the arts.
He saw the goddess Dianna naked and as punishment she turned his hounds on him and he was torn apart. Lesson learned, never see a virgin goddess naked at her bath.

True, but they were still copying to an extent.

ReplyDeleteIt was ancient mythology. Anything could and did happen.
