"Prometeo Divorato Dall'aquila" (Prometheus Devoured by an Eagle) is a renowned oil painting by the Italian Baroque master Luca Giordano, created in the late 17th century. This dramatic work of art depicts the ancient Greek myth of Prometheus, a Titan who was punished by Zeus for stealing fire from the gods and giving it to mankind. According to the myth, as an eternal punishment, Prometheus was bound to a rock, and each day an eagle was sent by Zeus to eat his liver, which would then regenerate overnight, only to be eaten again the next day.

Luca Giordano, known for his rapid painting technique and called "Fa Presto" (work quickly) by his contemporaries, was a prolific artist whose works were characterized by their dynamic compositions, vibrant colors, and dramatic use of light and shadow. "Prometeo Divorato Dall'aquila" is a prime example of Giordano's skill in conveying intense emotion and movement, as well as his ability to render the human form with both anatomical precision and expressive power.

The painting captures the moment of Prometheus's agony as the eagle, a symbol of Zeus's power, tears into his flesh. The composition is masterfully arranged to draw the viewer's eye to the interaction between the eagle and Prometheus, with the latter's expression and contorted body reflecting the pain of his unending torture. The work is imbued with a sense of pathos and the tragic nobility of Prometheus's sacrifice for humanity.

As a significant contribution to Baroque art, "Prometeo Divorato Dall'aquila" exemplifies Giordano's artistic legacy and his influence on the development of dynamic and emotionally charged compositions in the visual arts. The painting remains an important piece for the study of Baroque painting techniques and mythological iconography, as well as for understanding the cultural and philosophical ideas circulating in Europe during Giordano's lifetime.
