"Sleeping Diana Watched by Two Fauns" (1877) is a captivating oil painting by Swiss symbolist artist Arnold Böcklin, renowned for his imaginative and mythologically inspired works. This painting stands as a testament to Böcklin's fascination with classical mythology, exploring themes of voyeurism, innocence, and the intrusion of privacy through the lens of mythological narratives. The artwork depicts the Roman goddess Diana, known for her virginity and association with hunting, in a moment of vulnerability and rest, being secretly observed by two fauns — creatures that are part human, part goat, and are often associated with forest and wild nature in Roman mythology.

The composition masterfully contrasts the serene and pure figure of Diana, enveloped in a peaceful slumber, with the mischievous and somewhat unsettling presence of the fauns, thereby creating a narrative tension that invites viewers to ponder the intentions and consequences of this clandestine observation. Böcklin's use of color, light, and shadow further enhances the ethereal and dreamlike quality of the scene, while also subtly hinting at the potential danger or disruption that the fauns' presence could signify for the unsuspecting goddess.

"Sleeping Diana Watched by Two Fauns" is celebrated for its intricate detail, symbolic depth, and the way it captures the viewer's imagination, making it a significant work within Böcklin's oeuvre and a notable piece in the broader context of 19th-century symbolist art. The painting not only reflects Böcklin's personal style and thematic preoccupations but also contributes to the symbolist movement's exploration of the unseen, the mystical, and the psychologically profound aspects of human experience through the revival of classical and mythological subjects.
