Mythology and Paintings

Mythology is truely everywhere.  There are cars making references to divinities (I think there was a car compagny called Saturn).  There is even Nasa using references to the Greek/Roman Mythology (Gemini is a reference of The Diosicuri, Satun rocket, the Mercury programp, the Appollo mission)  Planets too but now not just on Greek/Roman mythology.  I still remember when they discovered Sedna way back.  In language too: just think when we say A Odysseys, it makes referenced to the voyage of Odyseus.  There also tour guides who are called Ulysses (French world for Odusseus)  The world panic comes from Pan, the satyre.  Names lile Sylvain also have a mythological origin.  There are a rasor compagny that is called Venus and they used an appropriate song that makes a reference to mythology too.  It was a connection really easy to make.

Today, my light bulb get ignited by mythology and paintings.  The first coming to mind is the Birth of Aphrodite or Birth of Venus.  Both are for the same divinity.  Aphrodite is Greek and Venus is Roman.  If you don't know about that picture, here it is in all it's glory:

I should had put the picture itself but the link will have to do.  Again, I thought: well, I guess there must be more than this one painting with a mythological theme.  There is a long history of sculpture that celebrate the body, so why not having paintings that have mythological theme.  Well, with a quick search on google, my guess was right.  Here is the link with the result for my search:

A quick search of picture of mythological paintings was also fruitful.  Here a link where we can see many example:

So, really, the mythology theme is strong in paintings as it is elsewhere.  Mythology sell even today, even if it is no longer a mainstream belief.  I am definetively in the «go mythology go» team.
