Salmacis attempts to rape Hermaphroditus. Engraving from 'Tableaux du temple des muses' (1655) by Michel de Marolles (1600 - 1681), known as the abb? de Marolles; a French churchman and translator. In Greek mythology, Salmacis was an atypical naiad who rejected the ways of the virginal Greek goddess Artemis, in favour of vanity and idleness. Her attempted rape of Hermaphroditus places her as the only nymph rapist in the Greek mythological canon
