"Perseus and Andromeda" is a 1611 oil on canvas painting by the Dutch Mannerist artist Joachim Wtewael, also known as Joachim Anthonisz Uytewael. The painting depicts the mythological story of Perseus, the Greek hero, rescuing Andromeda, the Ethiopian princess, from a sea monster. This subject was a popular theme in Renaissance and Baroque art, reflecting the interest in classical mythology and humanism.

In Wtewael's rendition, the drama unfolds with Perseus flying down from the heavens, aided by the winged sandals given to him by the messenger god Hermes. He is shown brandishing a sword, moments away from slaying the monstrous creature that threatens Andromeda, who is depicted as chained to a rock by the sea. The painting is characterized by its vivid colors, intricate details, and dynamic composition, which are typical of Wtewael's Mannerist style. The artist's use of light and shadow, as well as his skillful rendering of textures and flesh, contribute to the dramatic effect of the scene.

The work is part of a larger body of Wtewael's oeuvre that demonstrates his fascination with mythological and religious narratives, often portrayed with a combination of eroticism and moralizing themes. "Perseus and Andromeda" not only showcases Wtewael's technical prowess but also reflects the cultural and artistic interests of the Dutch Golden Age, where artists explored new subjects and techniques while engaging with classical antiquity.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, "Perseus and Andromeda" by Joachim Wtewael is held in a public or private collection, and it has been the subject of art historical analysis and interpretation. The painting is considered an important example of Northern Mannerism and contributes to the understanding of European art at the turn of the 17th century.
