About the piece
Painted in 1691 by François Verwilt, this oil on panel work depicts the mythological tale of Jupiter and Antiope. The scene features the sleeping nymph bathed in light, contrasted against the deep, earthy tones of a wooded landscape where Jupiter, disguised as a satyr, looks on from the shadows.
