In the ancient Egyptian pantheon, Hathor (or Het-Heru) was the goddess of love and sexuality, fertility, and joy, exemplifying the Egyptian ideal of femininity. You could say she was their equivalent to the Greek Aphrodite, the Norse Freyja, or the Yoruba Oshun. Although normally a benevolent and motherly deity, Hathor had a fierce side to her as well, for she could transform into the lioness-headed warrior goddess Sekhmet. Otherwise, the animal Hathor was associated with the most was the cow, whose form she could sometimes assume.
I have to say that goddesses of love like Hathor can be a joy to depict, as it gives me yet another pretext to draw a voluptuous woman. And I can never get enough of those!
