"Die Entführung des Ganymed" (The Abduction of Ganymede) is a renowned painting by the Flemish Baroque artist Peter Paul Rubens, depicting the mythological tale of Ganymede's abduction by Zeus. Created in the early 17th century, this work is a vivid example of Rubens' dynamic style and his mastery in portraying movement and emotion. The painting illustrates the moment from Greek mythology when Ganymede, a young prince of Troy noted for his divine beauty, is seized by Zeus, who has taken the form of an eagle, to be taken to Mount Olympus and become the cupbearer of the gods.

Rubens' interpretation of the myth is characterized by his signature use of rich, vibrant colors and fluid, energetic brushstrokes that convey the drama and intensity of the scene. The composition focuses on the powerful figure of the eagle, with its expansive wings enveloping the youth, emphasizing the contrast between the might of the god and the vulnerability of Ganymede. The artist's attention to physical detail and the emotional resonance of the figures is evident, as is his ability to capture the sensuousness and vitality that are hallmarks of his mythological representations.

The artwork is part of Rubens' broader oeuvre, which often explored classical antiquity and its narratives, reflecting the humanist interests of the time. "Die Entführung des Ganymed" not only showcases Rubens' technical prowess but also offers insight into the cultural and artistic preoccupations of the Baroque period in Europe. The painting is held in high esteem by art historians and is considered an important piece within Rubens' body of work, contributing to our understanding of the artist's impact on the development of European art.

As a significant historical artwork, "Die Entführung des Ganymed" continues to be studied and admired for its artistic merit and its interpretation of mythological subject matter. It remains an exemplary piece within the canon of Baroque painting, reflecting the enduring legacy of Peter Paul Rubens as one of the most influential and accomplished painters of his era.
