Juno Approaches Semele in the Form of Beroe, Hendrick Goltzius (workshop of), 1728 Canvas Print
Semele, daughter of Cadmus, is visited by Juno in the guise of her old lover Beroe. They sit opposite each other in a hedge-walled garden. Juno holds a grudge against Semele because she is pregnant with Jupiter. Juno advises Semele to ask the god to show himself to her in his full majesty. Only in this way can she be sure that the father of the child in her womb is a god and not an ordinary mortal. His heavenly fire devours her human body. Below the performance two lines of verse in Latin. The print is part of an album.
