"The Death of Procris" is a notable painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Daniel Vertangen, who was active during the 17th century. Vertangen, a lesser-known yet skilled artist of his time, was a pupil of the renowned painter Pieter Lastman and was influenced by the dramatic compositions and rich color palettes characteristic of his mentor's work.

This painting depicts a tragic scene from Ovid's "Metamorphoses," a classical text that has inspired countless works of art and literature. The story of Procris and Cephalus is one of love, jealousy, and misunderstanding, culminating in the accidental death of Procris. In Vertangen's interpretation, the moment of Procris's death is rendered with emotional intensity and meticulous attention to detail. The artist captures the poignant moment when Cephalus, having mistakenly killed his beloved wife with a javelin, realizes the gravity of his error.

Vertangen's use of light and shadow enhances the dramatic effect of the scene, drawing the viewer's eye to the central figures and their expressions of grief and despair. The lush landscape in the background, typical of Dutch landscape painting of the period, provides a serene contrast to the tragic foreground, emphasizing the themes of fate and the fragility of human life.

"The Death of Procris" exemplifies Vertangen's ability to convey complex narratives through his art, blending classical themes with the stylistic elements of the Dutch Golden Age. Although Vertangen may not be as widely recognized as some of his contemporaries, this work stands as a testament to his talent and his contribution to the rich tapestry of 17th-century Dutch painting.
