Paris was the man judging the goddesses Aphrodite, Athena, and Hera.
The judgment of Paris originally was a contest between the goddesses Aphrodite, Hera and Athena for who was the fairest - a difficult choice regardless of the decision. Today it means a difficult decision.
The central idea of the Judgment of Paris is the mythological story in which the Trojan prince Paris is tasked with choosing who among three goddesses - Aphrodite, Athena, and Hera - is the most beautiful. Paris ultimately selects Aphrodite, leading to consequences that contribute to the start of the Trojan War. It explores themes of beauty, vanity, and the power struggles among gods and mortals.
The Judgment of Paris is a Greek myth.
The Judgment of Paris - Rubens - was created in 1638.
It was the "will of Zeus" that the mortal Paris judge between the three goddesses, and chose the fairest according to Homer's version in The Iliad.
A good moral from the judgment of Paris is that beauty is subjective and can lead to jealousy or conflict when individuals compare themselves to others. It also serves as a reminder of the consequences that can arise from making choices based solely on outward appearance.
