"Glaucus and Scylla" is a notable work by Theodor van Thulden, a Dutch painter, draftsman, and engraver associated with the Baroque period. Born on November 9, 1606, in 's-Hertogenbosch, and dying on November 12, 1669, van Thulden was a prominent artist who studied under Peter Paul Rubens and was influenced by his style. The painting "Glaucus and Scylla" depicts a scene from Greek mythology, where Glaucus, a sea god, falls in love with the nymph Scylla and seeks the help of the sorceress Circe to win her affection.

In the artwork, van Thulden captures the dramatic moment of the mythological narrative with a dynamic composition and rich color palette characteristic of the Baroque era. The painting is imbued with emotional intensity, as it illustrates the transformation of Scylla into a monstrous creature, a consequence of Circe's jealousy rather than assistance. The work reflects van Thulden's mastery in conveying movement and emotion, as well as his ability to render the textures and details of the figures and the natural environment.

The painting serves as an example of the artist's engagement with classical themes and his contribution to the spread of the Baroque style in the Dutch Republic. Van Thulden's "Glaucus and Scylla" is significant for its artistic merit and as a representation of the cultural and mythological interests of the 17th century. It remains an important piece within van Thulden's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of Baroque art and its narrative capabilities.
