"The Story of Nastagio degli Onesti (detail of the second episode) 2" is a renowned work by the Italian painter Sandro Botticelli, created in the late 15th century. This painting is one of a series of four panels commissioned by Lorenzo di Pierfrancesco de' Medici, a cousin of Lorenzo the Magnificent, for the wedding of Giannozzo Pucci and Lucrezia Bini in 1483. The series illustrates the story of Nastagio degli Onesti, a narrative taken from the eighth novel of the fifth day in Giovanni Boccaccio's "Decameron."

In this second panel, Botticelli masterfully depicts the dramatic scene where Nastagio, a nobleman from Ravenna, witnesses a horrifying spectacle in a forest. A naked woman is being chased by a knight and his dogs, who are tearing her to pieces. The knight, revealed to be Guido degli Anastagi, a ghost from Ravenna, explains that he is eternally punished to hunt and kill the woman, his unrequited love, as she caused his suicide.

Botticelli's painting is celebrated for its intricate detail, emotional intensity, and its fusion of the naturalistic and the supernatural. It is currently housed in the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain. The painting is a significant example of Botticelli's narrative skill and his ability to translate complex literary sources into visual art. It also reflects the cultural and social context of the time, particularly the role of art in the celebration of marriages and the moral lessons expected of women.
