Image description

Mercury kills Argus. On the left the cow. Jo, Zeus' mistress, was transformed by Juno in a white cow out of jealousy and guarded by the hundred-eyed giant Argos. The same tethered the animal to an olive tree. But then Hermes appeared, sent by Zeus, lulled the Argos by lovely flute playing, decapitated his head, and then led away the freed Jo. Pen drawing in brown ink. Rembrandt van Rijn (1606-1669); Dutch School
