  3. Hecate for #ClassicsTober25 - although a minor figure in the magnificent Jupiter and Semele by Gustave Moreau - Hecate’s presence as a chthonic goddess is significant to this work.

    Semele’s demise was wrought by Juno but ultimately enacted by Jupiter. And who should wait patiently in the shadows? Hecate of course. With her crescent moon crown and wide-eyed stare, Hecate stands ready to meet Semele.
