Sculpture Zeus, Leda, Prometheus and Pegasus visit Bruges

The Gods Visit Bruges
Belgium, Brugge
The bronze sculpture "Zeus, Leda, Prometheus and Pegasus Visit Bruges" can be found in Walplein Square near the Lake of Love. It was created in 1982 based on Greek mythology and the novel "Malpertuis" by Jean Rey. According to legend, Zeus was delighted with the beauty of Leda and appeared to her in the form of a beautiful swan, and Helen and Polydeuces became the fruit of their great love.

This remake is located on a small area, surrounded on all sides by cafes and tables, so it’s hard to find an angle for a photo so that people at the table don’t get into it. It does not represent any historical value and looks a little vulgar, as one of the nearby tourists noted.

The bronze monument, by Belgian sculptor Jeff Clairhout, was inspired by the novel Malpertuis by Jean Rey. The composition depicts a flying chariot, where Prometheus is a coachman, Pegasus is a horse, Zeus is a tempting swan : ), and a naked and tempted woman is Leda, the wife of the Spartan king. Address: Walplein 29-41
