Asclepius Presented To Chiron
Engraving depicting the Apollo presenting the infant Asclepius, the god of medicine and healing in Greek mythology, to the centaur Chiron. Asclepius, was the son of Apollo and Coronis. His mother was killed for being unfaithful to Apollo and was laid out on a funeral pyre to be consumed, but the unborn child was rescued from her womb. From this he received the name Asklepios, to cut open. Apollo carried the baby to the centaur Chiron who raised Asclepius and instructed him in the art of medicine. Greece.
