Hera

Ἥρα: Queen of Heaven

I sing of golden-throned Hera whom Rhea bare. Queen of the immortals is she, surpassing all in beauty: she is the sister and the wife of loud-thundering Zeus,—the glorious one whom all the blessed throughout high Olympus reverence and honor even as Zeus who delights in thunder.
Homeric Hymn to Hera 12.1–5

    This reminds me of the evil queen in Snow White with the red poisoned apple! (although in this case it is a pomegranite!) The Disney film that is… but should I really be admitting that! :P

    Hi Ivy, just read your bio and you remind me of the Portagese Artist Paula Rego. I’m sure you would identify with her: “www.saatchi-gallery.co.uk/artists/paula_rego.htm”
    and “www.artcyclopedia.com/artists/rego_paula.html”

    Thanks
