"Granida and Daifilo" is a painting by the Dutch artist Dirck van Baburen, created in 1623 during the Dutch Golden Age. The work is a fragment of a larger piece and depicts a scene from the pastoral play "Granida" by P.C. Hooft, a renowned Dutch poet and playwright. The play, first performed in 1605, tells the story of the love between Granida, a Persian princess, and Daifilo, a shepherd. Baburen's painting captures the moment of their romantic encounter, reflecting the Baroque era's interest in dramatic themes, emotion, and the use of chiaroscuro.

Dirck van Baburen (c. 1594/1595–1624) was a prominent figure in the Utrecht Caravaggisti movement, a group of artists from Utrecht who were heavily influenced by the works of the Italian master Caravaggio. Baburen's style is characterized by strong contrasts of light and dark, vivid realism, and a focus on genre scenes as well as religious and mythological subjects.

The painting "Granida and Daifilo" is significant for its art historical value, showcasing Baburen's skill in capturing the textures of fabrics and the subtleties of human emotion. It also provides insight into the cultural exchange between Italy and the Netherlands during the 17th century, as Dutch artists like Baburen brought Caravaggesque influences into Northern European art.

Today, the fragment is part of the collection at the Centraal Museum in Utrecht, the Netherlands. Its provenance and the circumstances that led to it being a fragment are topics of interest for art historians. Despite its incomplete state, the work remains an important example of Baburen's oeuvre and of the Dutch Caravaggisti's contribution to European art.
