About the piece
Painted by the leading Rococo artist François Boucher in 1759, this work illustrates the mythological tale of Jupiter disguised as the goddess Diana to seduce the nymph Callisto. The scene is defined by its soft, porcelain-like skin tones, undulating silks, and a verdant landscape that exemplifies the graceful artifice and decorative splendor of the 18th-century French court style.
