Diana Bathing with her Nymphs with Actaeon and Callisto

1634

The painting depicts Diana and her nymphs bathing by a pool in a dense forest, with Actaeon and Callisto shown on the left in a hunting stance accompanied by a dog. The composition uses a strong chiaroscuro contrast, with the lit figures and blue drapery set against deep browns and near-black shadows, and a distant landscape is visible through a left-side opening. Rembrandt’s style is evident in the luminous, sculptural modeling of the bodies, warm flesh tones, and a dramatic, narrative Baroque mood.
