"The Abduction of Ganymede" is a drawing by Italian artist Cherubino Alberti. The drawing depicts the Greek myth of Ganymede, a Trojan prince who was abducted by Zeus, disguised as an eagle, to become the cupbearer of the gods on Mount Olympus. The drawing's delicate lines and composition create a sense of movement and drama, capturing the moment of Ganymede's abduction. It is held at the Städel Museum.
