Übersetzungen Italienisch > Englisch [PRO] Social Sciences - Geschichte | | Italienisch Begriff oder Satz: Cefalo e Pocri | From an article about a show of Antonio Canova's (sculptor and painter) works:
Si va da Adone incoronato da Venere, al gesso originale di Amore e Psiche stanti, alle tempere con gli Amorini, al dipinto di CEFALO E POCRI, ai bozzetti in terracotta della Morte di Adone, di Amore e Psiche che si abbracciano, il dipinto di Venere e Amore.
I have mainly tried finding Cefalus as it seems a likely historical name related to the above. I am at a loss for Pocri. Does anyone know these? They must be Greek or Roman figures. Thanks! |

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cephalus
Cephalus the husband of Procris
The other Cephalus was an Aeolian, the son of Deioneus (or Deion), ruler of Phocis, and Diomede. Cephalus was married to Procris, a daughter of Erechtheus. The goddess Eos, of dawn (Aurora at Rome) kidnapped Cephalus when he was hunting. Cephalus and Eos became lovers, and she bore him a son named Phaëthon (not to be confused with the son of the sun-god Helios). Some sources also give Tithonos and Hesperus as children of Cephalus and Eos. However, after some years, Cephalus began pining for Procris, causing a disgruntled Eos to return him to her - and put a curse on them.

http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cefalo_(mitologia)
Cefalo è una figura della mitologia greca.
Figlio di Deioneo e di Diomedea, sposò ***Procri***, figlia di Eretteo. La vita di questo personaggio è caratterizzata da storie d'amore e di gelosia. La dea dell'aurora Eos (Aurora nella mitologia romana) ne era follemente innamorata e, mentre Cefalo stava cacciando, la dea lo rapì. Cefalo tuttavia non voleva tradire Procri, ma Eos insinuò il giovane che la stessa Procri era facile a tradirlo appena qualcuno le avesse fatto un regalo e per avvalorare la sua tesi lo trasformò in un'altra persona.
