Juno Asking Aeolus To Release The Winds
Juno Asking Aeolus To Release The Winds c1769 by French Painter Francois Boucher (1703 – 1770), a bha cuideachd na neach-dealbhaidh agus na neach-deasachaidh sgileil. Bha e ag obair ann an Stoidhle Rococo agus tha e ainmeil airson a chuspairean clasaigeach eireachdail, Seallaidhean aoghaireil agus mion-chuingealachadh sgeadachaidh.
This is a depiction of the Greek-Roman Mythological tale of Juno (Chief Goddess akin to the Greek Hera) visiting Aeolus (King of the mythical, floating island of Aiolia or Aeolia), who is the keeper of the winds and urging him to release these mythological creatures so that their fury and might, may provoke a violent storm at sea, which would result in the destruction of the Aeneas’s Fleet.
Things don’t turn out as Juno expects, even though she has offered Aeolus her most beautiful nymph Deiopea in marriage; and aiming her torch strait at his heart, the love struck Aeolus does as she ask.
Then Cupid unsheathes an arrow to target the compliant nymph Deiopea, that has her wrist bound with pearls; but the power God of the Sea Neptune interferes and prevails over the winds that were released from the cavernous island interior, by rendering the waters of the sea into a calm state.
To complete the scene we find cherubs flying in the air and some floating on a cloud above the water and two other sea nymphs in the water surround by very large gulping fish.
