Greek Mythology

Titian and the two loves (amor sacro e amor profano)

Greek Mythology

Primavera (1478) by Sandro Botticelli. It is Spring, Nature's favorite season. The three Charites (Graces) are dancing, a Nymph (Chloris) spreads flowers. It's time for a new erotic adventure represented by Aphrodite (Venus) and her flying son Eros (who uses blind his bow). The wind Zephyrus captures Chloris. Only Hermes (as the Psychopompos who carries the soul of the persons who died to the underworld ) on the left side seems to ignore everything. He knows that death does not care what season it is.
