In Greek mythology, Boreas, the god of the north wind, is known for his abduction of Orithyia, daughter of King Erechtheus of Athens.
Boreas, captivated by Orithyia’s beauty, initially sought to woo her and gain her father’s permission for marriage. However, Orithyia repeatedly refused his advances. In a fit of his famously violent temper, Boreas resorted to force, kidnapping her while she was dancing by the River Ilissos. He enveloped her in a cloud and carried her to his home in Thrace, where she became his immortal wife.
Together, they had several children, including two daughters, Cleopatra and Chione, and twin sons, Zetes and Calais, known as the Boreads.
The abduction of Orithyia was a popular subject in Athenian art, particularly in vase paintings, where Boreas was often depicted as a bearded, winged figure with shaggy hair. The story was also featured in ancient literature, including a lost play by Aeschylus and references in Plato’s Phaedrus
