EDITORS COMMENTS
Castor and Pollux, the legendary Dioscuri twins, are depicted in this stunning golden-toned photograph from the Mary Evans Picture Library. Sons of the mighty Greek god Zeus and the mortal Leda, they were known for their exceptional bond and unwavering loyalty to one another. According to ancient mythology, Castor and Pollux joined Jason and the Argonauts on their legendary quest to retrieve the Golden Fleece. The Fleece, a fleece with magical properties, was said to have the power to make its owner invincible. The twins' addition to the crew was invaluable, as they possessed the ability to appear invulnerable in battle, a gift from their father Zeus. As they sailed the treacherous waters, the Dioscuri demonstrated their strength and skill, protecting their comrades and ensuring their safe passage. After the successful retrieval of the Golden Fleece, Castor and Pollux were granted a unique gift by Zeus: they were placed among the stars as the constellation Gemini, the twins of the zodiac. This photograph, with its warm, golden hue, captures the essence of the Dioscuri's mythic journey and enduring legacy. Their story, filled with adventure, loyalty, and the divine, continues to captivate and inspire us, reminding us of the power of brotherhood and the enduring bond between family and fate.
