"Apollo and Coronis" is a significant painting by the German artist Adam Elsheimer, created in the early 17th century, around 1606. This work is a fine example of Elsheimer's detailed and innovative approach to painting, which often combined elements of landscape, mythology, and the effects of light in a small-scale format. The painting depicts the tragic story from Ovid's Metamorphoses, where Apollo, the god of the sun, is informed by a crow of the infidelity of his lover Coronis. In a fit of rage, Apollo kills Coronis with his arrows, only to regret his action when it is too late.

Elsheimer's rendition of the myth is notable for its dramatic use of chiaroscuro and its intricate landscape, which showcases his skill in rendering naturalistic details and atmospheric effects. The painting is small, as is typical for Elsheimer's works, and is executed in oil on copper, a medium that allows for fine detail and luminous quality. "Apollo and Coronis" is an important example of Elsheimer's influence on the development of 17th-century landscape and nocturnal painting, with his innovative use of light influencing contemporaries and later artists such as Rembrandt.

The painting is held in high esteem for its historical significance in the context of Baroque art and for its technical mastery. It is part of the collection of the Städel Museum in Frankfurt, Germany, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic qualities and narrative depth. Elsheimer's "Apollo and Coronis" remains a testament to the artist's legacy as a master of small-scale, yet thematically rich and visually captivating compositions.
