Sexual Fables |
This article accompanies the fable Mercury and Calypso by sculptor and draughtsman John Flaxman around 1805 (shown here in a subsequent French edition of 1835). Calypso is ordered to give up Odysseus... Below: Athena appears in Penelope's dreams... Or, if you prefer, Athena appears in the form of Penelope's sister and tells the queen of the return of her son Telemachus.
