"Winter – Juno and Aeolus" is a renowned oil painting by French Romantic artist Eugène Delacroix, completed in 1856. This work is part of a series of four decorative panels representing the seasons, commissioned for the Salon du Roi in the Palais Bourbon, Paris. The series was intended to adorn the ceiling and was a government commission that Delacroix received in 1849.

The painting depicts the mythological figures Juno, the queen of the gods, and Aeolus, the ruler of the winds, in a dynamic and dramatic representation of the winter season. Juno is often associated with the protection of the state and its women, and in this context, she may symbolize the nurturing aspect of winter, overseeing the season's harshness. Aeolus, on the other hand, is shown releasing the winds from his domain, a fitting allegory for the blustery weather that characterizes winter.

Delacroix's mastery of color and movement is evident in "Winter – Juno and Aeolus." The swirling drapery of the figures and the tumultuous clouds reflect the Romantic fascination with nature's power and the sublime. The painting's composition, with its diagonal lines and dramatic contrasts of light and shadow, conveys a sense of energy and chaos that is tempered by the divine presence of the deities.

As part of the Palais Bourbon commission, "Winter – Juno and Aeolus" complements the other three seasonal panels, each embodying the characteristics of its respective season through mythological narratives. The series showcases Delacroix's ability to fuse classical themes with the expressive painterly techniques that would influence future generations of artists.

Today, "Winter – Juno and Aeolus," along with the other panels of the series, remains an important example of Delacroix's decorative work and his contribution to the Romantic movement in art. The painting is housed in the Musée du Louvre in Paris, where it continues to be studied and admired for its historical significance and artistic merit.
