About the piece
Painted in 1618 by Pieter Lastman, this Dutch Golden Age masterpiece captures the moment the goddess Juno discovers Jupiter’s infidelity. The composition is rich with narrative detail, from Juno’s majestic peacock chariot to the white cow representing the transformed Io, all rendered with sophisticated chiaroscuro and masterful brushwork typical of Lastman's influential style that famously preceded Rembrandt.
