"Hercules, Deianeira and the Centaur Nessus" is a 1612 oil painting by the Flemish artist David Vinckboons. The artwork depicts the mythological scene of the encounter between the Greek hero Hercules, his wife Deianeira, and the centaur Nessus, a narrative derived from classical mythology. In the myth, Nessus is responsible for ferrying passengers across the river Euenos, and during one such crossing with Deianeira, he attempts to abduct her, leading to his death at the hands of Hercules.

Vinckboons, known for his landscape and genre paintings, infuses this work with the Mannerist style that was prevalent in Northern Europe during the late 16th and early 17th centuries. The painting is characterized by its vivid colors, dynamic composition, and the emotional intensity of the figures. It captures the dramatic moment of the myth, emphasizing the physical struggle and the expressions of the characters involved.

The painting serves as an example of Vinckboons' skill in blending landscape with narrative and his ability to convey complex stories through art. It reflects the artist's interest in human drama and the natural world, themes that are recurrent in his oeuvre. "Hercules, Deianeira and the Centaur Nessus" is significant for its artistic merit and for its representation of mythological subject matter, which was a common theme among artists of the period.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is part of a private collection or a museum's holdings, and it contributes to the understanding of David Vinckboons' contribution to Flemish art and the broader context of European painting during the transition from the Renaissance to the Baroque period.
