Unchanged by any teller — how the centuries since have seen Megaera (Erinyes).

The Erinyes
Alonso Vázquez, late 16th–early 17th century
Vázquez paints the Furies as a Spanish Mannerist trio — Megaera with Alecto and Tisiphone as winged tormentors, the named Erinyes of the later mythographic lists.
Orestes Pursued by the Furies
William-Adolphe Bouguereau, 1862
Bouguereau’s Academic nightmare packs the Erinyes around the matricide — Megaera among the sisters whose names Apollodorus and Hyginus list as the jealous punishers of blood-guilt.
In play
Inferno IX (Megaera)
Dante Alighieri
Dante names Megaera with her sisters on the walls of Dis — the Fury of jealousy as a medieval gatekeeper of the City of Hell.
Hades
Supergiant Games
Supergiant’s underworld roguelike makes Megaera a recurring Fury boss — the jealous Erinys as whip and dialogue in the House of Hades.
