ogcma s.v. "Europa"
Classical Sources:

Reuben Nakian, "Voyage to Crete", ca. 1970, bronze plaque for hanging, 15 x 21 x 2.5", Private Collection, Nakian Atelier no. 30.362.
Nakian engaged the myth of Europa throughout his career in several media. Some of his works are entitled "Voyage to Crete" and others "Europa [and the bull]". Reid lists seven discreet entries, but each is multifaceted and there should be more.

OGCMA slides are designed by Roger T. Macfarlane for use in Classical Civilization 241 courses at Brigham Young University.
