There are couple Greek myths that tell how the peony got its name. The Greek myth that this painting was named from tells the story of the nymph Paeonia. Paeonia was so extraordinarily stunning that she attracted the attention of Apollo, the sun god and son of Zeus. Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, was not known for her loyalty, and was at the time (even though married to Hephaestus, Greek god of blacksmiths) having a fling with Apollo, and witnessed them together.  She grew jealous of Paeonia’s beauty and Apollo’s attraction to her, so out of spite Aphrodite turned the nymph Paeonia into a peony flower.
