About the piece
Painted around 1655 by Caesar van Everdingen, this work is a quintessential example of Dutch Classicism. The scene depicts the moment Jupiter, having assumed the form of Diana, seduces the nymph Callisto amidst a lush woodland setting, characterized by the artist's signature smooth, sculptural brushwork and masterful play of light on skin and silk.
