Leda and the Swan is allegedly* a motif from Greek mythology, in which Zeus allegedly came to Leda in the form of a swan.  Zeus allegedly took the form of a swan and allegedly raped or seduced Leda on the same night she allegedly slept with her husband, King Tyndareus. She allegedly laid two eggs from which the children hatched.

Uhhhh, What the WHAT?!

Have you ever been attacked by a swan before?  Dude, those things are VICIOUS. They hiss, they hit and they bite.

When they come for you, RUN.

DON’T JUST LAY THERE WAITING TO BE TAKEN! RUUUUUNN!

Pretty, right? Well, it can be yours for a mere ten thousand dollars.

Get your pennies out!

*I say allegedly because we don’t know for certain and dude, I’m not going to get attacked by a swan version of Zeus.

   Greek mythology is mess up. I adore it. Artwork of very literal interpretations of it, though? Noooooot so much.
