On researching this light and magical drawing of a group of Centaurs in a forest which includes two female Centaurs (Centaurides) and a male Centaur. A group of Centaurs and Centaurides can also be called Centauroi which is the name of the horseman tribe they are based on. The story of Centaurs and Centauresses is one from Greek Methology. Centauresses are less mentioned in the Greek methological writings so this is a lovely female version of the story.
