"Odysseus Deriding Polyphemus" is an oil painting by Joseph Mallord William Turner, completed in 1829. This artwork is a prime example of Turner's Romantic style, depicting a dramatic scene from Homer's epic poem, the Odyssey. The painting illustrates the moment after Odysseus and his men have escaped the cave of Polyphemus, the Cyclops. Odysseus, also known by his Roman name Ulysses, is shown taunting the blinded Cyclops from the safety of his ship, a reckless act that ultimately brings the wrath of Poseidon upon him and his crew.

Turner's use of light and color dramatically enhances the narrative, focusing on the contrast between the dark, brooding presence of Polyphemus and the luminous, ethereal glow surrounding Odysseus and his men. The painting is renowned for its vibrant palette and masterful rendering of the tumultuous sea, which reflects Turner's preoccupation with the sublime and the power of nature.

"Odysseus Deriding Polyphemus" is housed in the National Gallery in London and remains a significant work in Turner's oeuvre, exemplifying his skill in blending classical themes with his unique, emotive approach to landscape painting. This piece not only captures a pivotal moment in Greek mythology but also showcases Turner's ability to evoke emotion and narrative through his revolutionary use of color and light.
