The image of the Taurus comes from a Greek myth in which Zeus, the chief of the gods, would have been enchanted by the beauty of Europa, daughter of Agenor, and to seduce her, he transformed himself into a magnificent white bull. The young woman, who was enjoying herself on the beach with her friends when she saw the animal, approached, caressed it and, enchanted by her docility, mounted it.
At the same moment, the bull darted towards the sea, stopping only on the island of Crete, where Zeus made himself known by loving the young woman. Proud of his deed, Zeus placed the bull among the stars.
