"Die Metamorphosen des Ovid" (The Metamorphoses of Ovid) is a series of engravings by the German artist Johann Wilhelm Baur (1607–1642), illustrating the epic poem "Metamorphoses" by the Roman poet Ovid. Baur, known for his baroque illustrations, created these engravings in the 17th century, capturing the essence of Ovid's tales that chronicle the creation of the world and its history through a series of mythological transformations.

The series is notable for its intricate detail and the way it reflects the baroque fascination with drama, emotion, and the interplay of humans and the divine. Baur's work on "Die Metamorphosen des Ovid" is considered an important contribution to the visual arts of the period, offering a vivid pictorial companion to Ovid's narrative. Each engraving is accompanied by a caption in Latin, summarizing the scene depicted.

Johann Wilhelm Baur's illustrations cover a wide range of mythological stories, from the creation of the universe to the deification of Julius Caesar. His work not only serves as an artistic interpretation of ancient myths but also provides insight into the cultural and artistic milieu of the 17th century. The engravings are valued for their historical significance as well as their artistic merit, offering a window into the ways in which Ovid's work continued to inspire and influence artists centuries after it was written.

Today, "Die Metamorphosen des Ovid" by Johann Wilhelm Baur is of interest to scholars of art history, classical studies, and literature, as it represents a confluence of these disciplines through the medium of printmaking. The series is also a testament to the enduring legacy of Ovid's "Metamorphoses" and its impact on the visual arts.
