The myth of Pegasus provided Pontano with the opportunity to glorify the horse Aganippus, to whom the poet himself reserved the privilege of stellificatio. Pontano also built his own self-celebration around the myth, acquiring the image of the winged horse as a metaphor for flight to the heights of achievement and poetic inspiration.
