Item Details

Description

Leda and the swan. Greece (Canossan), ca. 400-300 BC.
Terracotta.
In good condition.
Provenance: Collection of W. Rosenbaum, Ascona/ Baidun fine Antiquities, 2014; Exhibited: Feriarte, IFEMA (Madrid, 16-24 November 2019).
Thermoluminescence test attached (TL).
Measurements: 23 cm.
The story of Leda and the swan comes from Greek mythology. Leda was the wife of Tindarus, king of Sparta. One day, while walking along the river Eurotas, after having sexual relations with her husband Tindar, Leda was seduced by Zeus, who appeared in the form of a swan, something he often did in order to have sexual relations with women. From these relations, Leda bore four children, two by her mortal husband Tindarus and two by the god Zeus. This motif is rarely depicted, but is very common in Renaissance painting.
