3D modely ARTSarcophagus depicting The Story of Hippolytus at The State Hermitage Museum, St PetersburgTitle Sarcophagus panel depicting The Story of Hippolytus Artist Unknown, Ancient Rome Date Mid 3rd century Medium Marble Dimensions H. 125 c, Accession # P-4221 A.432 Hippolytus was a minor divinity in Greek religion. At Athens he was associated with Aphrodite, the goddess of love; at Troezen, girls just before marrying dedicated to him a lock of their hair. To the Greeks his name might suggest that he was destroyed by horses. In Euripides’ tragedy Hippolytus, he was son of Theseus, king of Athens, and the Amazon Hippolyte. Theseus’ queen, Phaedra, fell in love with Hippolytus. When Phaedra’s passion was revealed to him, he reacted with such revulsion that she killed herself, leaving a note accusing Hippolytus of having tried to rape her. Theseus, refusing to believe Hippolytus’ protestations of innocence, banished him and called down upon him one of the three curses the sea god Poseidon had given to him. Poseidon sent a sea monster that frightened Hippolytus’ horses until he could no longer control them. They smashed the chariot and dragged their master to death. náhodný výbÄ›r modelů
