| Description |
English: Opnamedatum: 2012-04-02. Created circa 1632 - 1633. Odysseus' crewman grab and slay one of the sun-god's sacred cows, despite his warnings. In the foreground, one can see the sea god Neptune threaten the ship with his trident, while in the background a young nymph (perhaps the Sun's daughter Lampetia) informs the sun god, mounted on his chariot, of the sacrilege. Engraving.
Ελληνικά: Το πλήρωμα του Οδυσσέα αρπάζει και σκοτώνει μια από τις ιερές αγελάδες του θεού ήλιου, παρά τις προειδοποιήσεις του. Σε πρώτο πλάνο διακρίνεται ο θεός της θάλασσας Νέπτουνους να απειλεί το πλοίο με την τρίαινά του, ενώ στο βάθος μια νεαρή νύμφη (ίσως η κόρη του Ήλιου Λαμπετίη) ενημερώνει τον θεό ήλιο, ανεβασμένο στο άρμα του, για την ιεροσυλία. Γκραβούρα. |
