"Jupiter and Europa" is a renowned oil painting by the Italian Baroque artist Guido Reni, created circa 1620–1621. The artwork depicts the mythological tale of Jupiter, the king of the gods in Roman mythology, and Europa, a Phoenician princess. According to the myth, Jupiter, enamored by Europa's beauty, transformed himself into a white bull to seduce and abduct her. Reni's interpretation of the story captures the moment of seduction, with a focus on the figures' expressions and the sensuality of the encounter.

Guido Reni, born in Bologna in 1575, was a prominent figure in the Baroque period, known for his classical style that emphasized harmony and clarity. His works often featured religious and mythological subjects, rendered with a delicate use of color and light, which became characteristic of the Bolognese School of painting. "Jupiter and Europa" is a testament to Reni's mastery of composition and his ability to convey narrative through art.

The painting is significant for its portrayal of the figures with an idealized beauty that is typical of Reni's work. Jupiter, in the guise of a bull, is depicted with a serene and almost divine presence, while Europa is shown with an air of innocence and allure. The interaction between the divine and the mortal is a common theme in Reni's oeuvre, and this painting exemplifies his skill in blending the earthly with the celestial.

"Jupiter and Europa" has been admired for its elegant execution and its contribution to the Baroque exploration of passion and mythology. The work is housed in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, Austria, where it continues to be studied and appreciated by art historians and enthusiasts alike. Its influence extends beyond its time, contributing to the understanding of mythological representation in Baroque art and the broader cultural context of the period.
