前麵說到Zeus變成天鵝追美女。這次他又看上了Danae。
故事二:Zeus變成一陣黃金雨
女主角是Argos(古希臘的一個城邦,位於伯羅奔尼撒半島東北部)的公主。Zeus見了她,色心又起。化作一陣黃金雨,進入Danae香閨。成了好事。他們的兒子也是一個人物,叫做Perseus,就是殺了Medusa的那位。

看看藝術家們如何表現這個神話故事。

順便欣賞他的那幅The Kiss

畫這個故事最給力的要數Titian了。前前後後掛出來的正品就有4幅之多。

下麵的Tintoretto 也有一拚。

下麵這幅是François Boucher 的作品。這幅比較chaste。。。。。。

。。。。。。比起這幅也是他畫的Leda and the Swan來。

這副畫裏是不是有一些Rococo的淫蕩色彩透露出來?同樣看全裸的大衛,怎麽就感覺不到這份淫味尼?

But, after all, please allow me borrow someone else's word: If it wasn't for lust we'd be extinct. Yo! to Boucher for cashing in:-)
![](http://www.francoisboucher.org/Danae.jpg) 這幅也是Boucher畫的。
