We have our own unlikely version of the Prometheus figure. The Sheep, in seeing malnourished humans who knew not of agriculture, stole five grains from the Jade Emperor and gifted it to men (presumably with a handbook on how to farm them). Poor thing was sacrificed for the hubris of course, but we continue to celebrate its giving spirit, as well as its gentility and perseverance in the face of hostility. 🐏 #TempleOfTales #Sheep #Prometheus #Agriculture #chinesefolklore #digitalart #illustration #procreate https://www.instagram.com/p/CKYf0t6A5Lb/?igshid=doscb7muuhr3
