"Diana und Aktaeon" is an engraving by Pieter van Lisebetten, a Flemish artist known for his work in the printmaking medium during the 17th century. The engraving depicts the mythological tale from Ovid's Metamorphoses, where the hunter Actaeon stumbles upon the goddess Diana (Artemis in Greek mythology) as she bathes with her nymphs. Upon being seen naked, Diana, in her fury, transforms Actaeon into a stag, and he is subsequently torn apart by his own hunting dogs.

Van Lisebetten's rendition of this classical subject is a testament to the Northern European fascination with mythological themes and the humanist interest in ancient texts that was prevalent during the Renaissance and Baroque periods. The engraving is notable for its intricate detail and the dynamic interplay of light and shadow, which reflects the influence of the Italian master engravings that were widely disseminated in Northern Europe at the time.

The work is part of a larger tradition of visual arts that explores the themes of voyeurism, divine retribution, and the boundary between the human and natural worlds. "Diana und Aktaeon" not only showcases Van Lisebetten's technical skill as an engraver but also serves as a cultural artifact that offers insight into the artistic and intellectual currents of 17th-century Europe.

As an artist, Pieter van Lisebetten is less well-known than his contemporaries, and as such, there is limited information available about his life and the full extent of his oeuvre. However, his works like "Diana und Aktaeon" contribute valuable perspectives to the understanding of engraving as an art form during this period and the enduring appeal of classical mythology in European art.
