"Danaë" (1636-47) is a celebrated oil painting by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, housed in the Hermitage Museum, Saint Petersburg. This artwork is a striking example of Rembrandt's mastery in portraying mythological themes with a profound sense of humanity and emotional depth. The painting depicts the myth of Danaë, from Greek mythology, who was the mother of Perseus by Zeus. According to the myth, Zeus visited her in the form of golden rain, penetrating her locked chamber, and impregnating her. Rembrandt's interpretation of the story is imbued with a sense of intimacy and vulnerability, showcasing his skill in using light and shadow to evoke emotion and narrative depth.

Measuring 185 cm × 203 cm, "Danaë" is notable for its large scale and the luminous quality of the figure, highlighted against a dark background. Rembrandt's use of chiaroscuro, the technique of using strong contrasts between light and dark, serves to dramatize the scene and focus the viewer's attention on Danaë's form and expression. The painting underwent a significant restoration after being attacked with sulfuric acid in 1985, which required extensive work to return it to its former glory.

"Danaë" is considered one of Rembrandt's most important works, exemplifying his innovative approach to classical subjects and his ability to convey complex emotions and narratives through his paintings. The artwork continues to be a subject of scholarly interest and is a highlight of the Hermitage Museum's collection, attracting visitors from around the world who seek to experience the beauty and depth of Rembrandt's artistry.
