Apollo Artemis Fleeing Frogs Gathering Hera Leto Peasants Refuse Rushes Thirsty Turn Zeus Latona Myth
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Peasants into Frogs" depicts a powerful moment from classical mythology. In the image, we see Leta, also known as Leto or Latona, fleeing from Hera with her children Apollo and Artemis. As they journey through the land, Leta becomes thirsty and approaches a group of peasants gathering rushes for water. However, to her dismay, they refuse her drink.
In a swift act of vengeance, Leta calls upon Zeus to intervene. With his divine power, he transforms the heartless peasants into frogs as punishment for their cruelty towards the goddess and her children. The scene is filled with tension and drama as we witness the consequences of denying hospitality to those in need.
This mythological tale serves as a reminder of the importance of kindness and compassion towards others, especially in times of desperation. It also highlights the wrath that can be unleashed by disrespecting gods and goddesses in ancient Greek mythology.
The intricate details captured in this print bring this legendary story to life, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the rich history and folklore of classical civilization. It is a stunning portrayal of betrayal, retribution, and ultimately transformation at the hands of divine forces.
