Antique Print of Phineus, Son of Poseidon or Phoenix, 1733
About the Item
Antique print titled 'Phinée délivré des Harpyes (..)'. This print depicts Phineus delivered from the Harpies by Calais & Zethes. Phineas was said to be a son of Poseidon, or of Phoenix, and had the gift of prophecy. Zeus, angry that Phineas revealed too much of the plans of the gods, punished him by blinding him and setting him on an island with a buffet of food. However, he could eat none of it because the harpies, vicious, winged women, stole the food out of his hands right before he could eat. This continued until the arrival of Jason and the Argonauts. They sent the winged heroes, the Boreads, after the harpies. This print originates from 'Tafereel, of Beschryving van den prachtigen Tempel der Zang-Godinnen' by B. Picart.
