Dimensions
image size: 55.6cm (h) x 38.9cm (w)
Due to his irresistible beauty, Ganymede is abducted by Olympian god Zeus disguised as an eagle. This image epitomises the mastery of printmaking developed by Frink at this later stage of her career: a softer line and use of etched washes is notable across the whole series as well as here.
