My mother just sent this to me with the caption “something to think about hmmmmm?” and I can’t take this I love my supportive mother I would kill for her
i don't think that's her eyes Helen is looking at...
okay the whole vase is great but something about Helen sitting on Aphrodite's lap as she wraps one arm around her shoulder and brushes her leg with her hand, staring into her eyes like that... as she is persuading Helen to go with Paris (while Peitho aka persuasion stands behind them) is so incredibly iconic.
and gay. toxic yuri, if you will.
