"Diana and Callisto" is a painting by the Flemish Baroque artist Sir Peter Paul Rubens, created circa 1637. The artwork is a vivid representation of the mythological story from Ovid's Metamorphoses, where Callisto, a nymph and a follower of the goddess Diana, is transformed into a bear. The narrative unfolds as Callisto, who has been seduced by Jupiter and is now pregnant, is discovered by Diana during the ritual of bathing with her fellow nymphs. The discovery of Callisto's condition leads to her expulsion from Diana's chaste entourage, as she violates the vow of chastity required by the goddess.

Rubens' interpretation of the myth is characterized by his signature dynamic composition, robust figures, and a dramatic use of color and light. The painting captures the moment of tension and revelation, with the figures of Diana and Callisto engaged in a confrontation that is both physical and emotional. The surrounding nymphs exhibit a range of reactions, from shock to empathy, adding to the narrative complexity of the scene.

The artwork is a testament to Rubens' mastery in depicting the human form and his ability to convey narrative through expressive gestures and poses. "Diana and Callisto" is often noted for its sensual and baroque qualities, which are emblematic of Rubens' oeuvre. The painting also reflects the cultural and artistic interests of the 17th century, where mythological subjects were used to explore themes of morality, virtue, and the human condition.

"Diana and Callisto" by Rubens is part of a rich tradition of artistic interpretations of this myth, standing alongside works by other renowned artists such as Titian and Rembrandt. The painting is held in high regard for its artistry and contribution to the Baroque period, and it continues to be studied and admired for its historical significance and aesthetic beauty.
