This is the Polish titled version. This animation shows Iris, the rainbow goddess, taking flight. Iris carried messages from one god to another, especially messages from Zeus and Hera. The ancient Greeks said that rainbows were caused by Iris streaking across the sky, leaving rainbows in her wake.
The animation was created from a vase that was made in Athens in around 450BCE. The vase is now housed in the National Museum in Warsaw, in Poland (number 142289). The animation was created by the Panoply Vase Animation Project as part of the European Research Council funded project: Our Mythical Childhood... The Reception of Children's and Young Adults' Culture in Response to Regional and Global Challenges (Grant Agreement 681202; led by Prof Katarzyna Marciniak).

Brilliant, love how the animation jumps out from the vase bringing the scene to life.
