EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Juno and the Peacock," is a beautiful representation of a mythological tale from ancient Roman mythology, as depicted in this 1887 print from Mary Evans Picture Library. The goddess Juno, the queen of the Roman gods and goddesses of marriage and childbirth, is shown seated on a throne, surrounded by lush greenery and adorned in regal robes. At her feet, a proud and resplendent peacock, identified by its distinctive crest of iridescent feathers, bows its head in complaint. The peacock, a symbol of pride and beauty in both Roman and Greek mythology, is said to have approached Juno to lament his inability to sing as enchantingly as the nightingale. The nightingale, a small bird renowned for its melodic voice, was considered the embodiment of musical excellence in mythology. Feeling inferior and discontented with his own abilities, the peacock sought the goddess's wisdom and consolation. Juno, the embodiment of wisdom and compassion, listened to the peacock's complaint and responded with understanding. She acknowledged the peacock's unique beauty and told him to be content with what he had, reminding him that every creature possesses its own unique gifts and virtues. The peacock, reassured by Juno's words, stood tall and proud once more, recognizing the value in his own beauty and the importance of appreciating one's own unique qualities. This print, with its intricate details and rich colors, transports us back in time to an era of mythology and legend, reminding us of the timeless wisdom and beauty of the natural world and the importance of being content with who we are.
