Thread: Sexuality

The mythological exaggeration of sexuality in original works of art was still considered legitimate representation, against the relatively few incidents took place. Erotic art alone was scandalized by aesthetic considerations. A special fate befell the 1530 painting picture, which in 1721 passed into the collection of the regent of France. This was led by his son, was badly damaged by the head of Leda, which was amusing himself in sexual play with Zeus in the guise of a swan, cut out from the image.

Nice and informative post.
However Greek Mythology is full of such excerpts.
Like the story of the titans, where Mother Gaia, urges the youngest titan, the father of Zeus, to incarcerate his father, and the husband of gaia, Uranus, meaning the sky.
