About the piece
Created by the Flemish master Paul Bril around 1617, this oil on canvas depicts the dramatic mythological moment when Diana discovers Callisto's pregnancy. The work is a quintessential example of early 17th-century landscape painting, blending meticulous foliage detail with a soft, expansive sense of depth and atmospheric light typical of the artist's mature Roman period.
