18+ AimeeMaroux, It's the Day of Hermes aka Mercurius Day aka #Wednesday! 🐏
"Indeed they would have chopt up little Bakkhos [#Dionysos] a baby still piecemeal in the distracted flood of their vagabond madness, had not #Hermes come on wing and stolen Bakkhos again with a robber's untracked footsteps."
Nonnus, Dionysiaca 9.28🏛 Hermes and baby Dionysos, detail of a red-figure krater. Today in the Musée du Louvre.
