Andrômeda acorrentada. Pintura de Edward Poynter (1869).
Umas das histórias mais famosas de Andrômeda é a de quando sua mãe disse que ela era mais bonita que as Nereidas, que eram as filhas do rei Nereu, que na maioria das vezes é acompanhado por Poseidon, seu melhor amigo. Por causa do insulto, Poseidon, para punir Cassiopéia pelo que havua falado, mandou um monstro marinho, o Cetus, para então atacar e destruir toda a Etiópia. Então o rei Cefeu desesperado com o que estava acontecendo resolveu consultar o Ammon - oráculo de Zeus -, que disse que só acabaria tudo quando ele resolvesse sacrificar sua filha Andromeda - que era virgem -, dando sua filha para o monstro. E devido as circunstâncias, o rei não teve escolha, pois a sua terra já estava bastante devastada. Andromeda foi acorrentada em uma rochedo para que Cetus, o monstro, a devorasse.
No momento em que Andromeda já estava acorrentada, Perseu, filho de Zeus, sobrevoava a Etiópia, pois acabava de matar a medusa. Ele conseguiu soltar a princesa e derrotar Cetus. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links Recomendado para vocêBabbelEste app da Alemanha para aprender idiomas já tem 1 milhão de usuáriosBabbelDesfazerFérias Sem Fimhttps://feriassemfim.com/fillipe-cordeiro-2?utm_source=taboola&utm_medium=desktop&utm_
