Titon et l’Aurore

About the show

In the prologue, Prometheus gives life to his statues by stealing fire from heaven, and Love teaches them about love. In the main story, the mortal shepherd Titon and dawn goddess Aurore love one another, provoking the jealousy of Eole, who also desires Aurore, and Palès, who loves Titon. Aurore rejects Eole, preferring to lose her immortality rather than Titon. Palès fails to win Titon and curses him with premature old age. Aurore remains faithful, and Love reverses the spell.
