CASTOR AND POLLUX INFORMATION
I can't get this any video bigger which is really annoying but Castor and Pollux are Leda's twins from when Zeus came to earth as a swan and raped her. I first came across them because rape turns out to be a very popular subject for artists and often the twins feature in representations of Leda and the Swan - in an egg or as cherubic onlookers. They're also the two faces of Gemini and aptly the names of Nicolas Cage and his brother in Face / Off, presumably because of their symbolism of fraternal love and loyalty.
