"Diana and Actaeon" is a painting by the Italian Baroque artist Federico Cervelli, depicting the mythological encounter between the goddess Diana and the hunter Actaeon from Ovid's Metamorphoses. In the narrative, Actaeon accidentally stumbles upon Diana, the goddess of the hunt, as she bathes with her nymphs. As a punishment for seeing her unclothed, Diana transforms Actaeon into a stag, and he is subsequently torn apart by his own hunting dogs.

Cervelli's interpretation of this dramatic moment is characterized by his use of dynamic composition, dramatic lighting, and meticulous attention to detail, all hallmarks of the Baroque style. The painting captures the instant of Actaeon's surprise and Diana's outraged modesty, with the figures positioned in a way that conveys both the tension of the encounter and the tragic fate that awaits the hapless hunter.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not known, it is believed to have been produced during the late 17th century, a period when Cervelli was active as an artist. The work is notable for its exploration of themes such as voyeurism, divine retribution, and transformation, which are recurrent in Baroque art.

"Diana and Actaeon" by Federico Cervelli is an example of the rich artistic interpretations of classical mythology during the Baroque period, reflecting the era's interest in dramatic narrative, emotional expression, and the exploration of moral and philosophical themes through allegory. The painting is a significant contribution to the oeuvre of Cervelli, who, while not as widely recognized as some of his contemporaries, demonstrated a mastery of the Baroque idiom and contributed to the visual culture of his time.
