Cerus the Bull

Cerus the Bull

Cerus, the wild bull from Greek mytholgy, was tamed by Persephone and was made into the Taurus constellation. The mythical Cerus was wild and out of control, choosing to follow his emotions on a whim. Unlike his namesake, this big boy was placid and content and happy to be photographed and sketched. However I'm fairly certain the ancient Cerus wasn't a prize Hereford Stud.
