A painting based on the story of Arachne. After a competition with the gods, she had, in her arrogance over her art, been blind to the consequences of challenging the gods. Still in anger, Athena transformed Arachne into a spider ("arachni" in Greek), proclaiming that Arachne and all her descendants would henceforth hang forever from threads and be skillful weavers.
