The Harpy is a mythical creature that is half woman and half bird. Specifically, it is typically depicted as having a woman's head and torso, with bird-like wings, talons, and lower body, which is similar to an eagle or vulture. In Greek mythology, Harpies were violent and merciless creatures associated with winds, storms, and sudden changes. They were said to be the daughters of the god of the sea, and they were often depicted as snatching away people and things. The image of the Harpy has been used in many different forms of art and literature throughout history, often as a symbol of feminine power and fury.
