"Diana and Actaeon" is a painting by the German Mannerist artist Hans von Aachen, created in the late 16th or early 17th century. The painting depicts the mythological story from Ovid's Metamorphoses, where the young hunter Actaeon stumbles upon the goddess Diana (Artemis in Greek mythology) as she bathes with her nymphs in a secluded forest. Upon being seen naked, Diana, in her fury, transforms Actaeon into a stag, and he is subsequently torn apart by his own hunting dogs.

Hans von Aachen was known for his skillful blending of Northern Renaissance and Italian Mannerist influences, which is evident in the dynamic composition and the intricate rendering of figures in this work. The painting is characterized by its vibrant colors, complex figural arrangements, and the dramatic expression of emotions, all hallmarks of the Mannerist style.

"Diana and Actaeon" by Hans von Aachen is not only a representation of a popular mythological subject but also an example of the cross-cultural artistic exchanges that were prevalent in Europe during the late Renaissance period. The painting showcases Von Aachen's ability to infuse his work with both the detailed naturalism of his Northern European roots and the sophisticated allegorical and mythological themes favored by Italian artists of the time.

The artwork serves as an important piece in the oeuvre of Hans von Aachen, illustrating his contribution to the Mannerist movement and his role in the dissemination of Italianate styles to the Northern European artistic landscape. It remains a significant work for the study of European art history, particularly in the context of the late Renaissance and Mannerist periods.
