"Diana and Actaeon" is a celebrated masterpiece by the Italian Renaissance painter Tiziano Vecellio, known as Titian, created between 1556 and 1559. This painting is part of a series of works commissioned by Philip II of Spain, illustrating scenes from Ovid's "Metamorphoses" - a collection of mythological tales. The artwork, measuring 185 cm × 202 cm, is executed in oil on canvas and showcases Titian's mastery in handling color, composition, and narrative depth.

The painting depicts the moment from the mythological story where the young hunter Actaeon, while wandering in the forest, accidentally stumbles upon the goddess Diana bathing with her nymphs. Unaware of his impending doom, Actaeon's intrusion angers Diana, who, in retaliation, transforms him into a stag, leading to his eventual death by his own hunting dogs. This moment of transformation and the tension between the mortal and the divine are captured with dramatic intensity by Titian.

"Diana and Actaeon" is renowned for its dynamic composition, the intricate depiction of figures and emotions, and its vibrant palette. The figures of Diana, Actaeon, and the surrounding nymphs are rendered with a lifelike quality, their expressions and poses reflecting the surprise, indignation, and fear of the unfolding scene. The lush landscape and the play of light and shadow contribute to the dramatic effect, highlighting the figures and underscoring the narrative's tension.

The painting is a significant example of Titian's late work, demonstrating his continued innovation and influence on the development of Venetian painting. It reflects the artist's interest in classical mythology, his skill in storytelling through visual means, and his ability to convey complex emotional states and moral tales.

Today, "Diana and Actaeon" is held in high esteem as one of Titian's greatest achievements. It resides in the collection of the National Gallery in London and the Scottish National Gallery in Edinburgh, as part of a unique sharing arrangement. The work continues to be studied and admired for its artistic excellence and its profound impact on the course of Western art.
