Hyacinth
Added 2020-04-27 03:49:48 +0000 UTCHyacinth or Hyacinthus is a divine hero and a lover of Apollo from Greek mythology, he was a very beautiful Spartan prince and lover of the god Apollo. Swans were believed to be the birds of Hyperborea, a mystical land of eternal spring and immortality, to which Apollo himself traveled every winter on a chariot drawn by swans. This association of Hyacinth with swans places him in close connection to Hyperborean Apollo and spring.

....Sooo the boy is riding the bird of his lover, ooh ya know what it means 😏
Actually, I based this artwork on ancient depictions of Hyacinth:
Hyakinthos on swan. Attic Red Figure Kylix. Attributed to Apollodoros. 500-490 B.C.
