.

The siren Parthenope sought to captivate Odysseus with her song. Yet the hero ordered his sailors to stop their ears with wax, while he himself was bound to the mast of the ship. Despairing of lost love, Parthenope cast herself into the sea, but the waves bore her to the shores of Naples. In the Renaissance imagination, this ancient myth foretold the city’s destiny — to become a kingdom of music.
