"Io Recognised by Her Father" is a painting by Victor Honoré Janssens, a Flemish painter known for his historical and mythological scenes. The artwork depicts the moment from Ovid's Metamorphoses when Io, who has been transformed into a heifer by Jupiter to hide her from his wife Juno's wrath, is recognized by her father Inachus. The painting captures the emotional intensity of the reunion, with Inachus depicted in a state of surprise and compassion as he realizes the heifer before him is his daughter.

Janssens, who was active during the late 17th and early 18th centuries, was adept at conveying complex narratives through his art. His work is characterized by a Baroque style, with dramatic use of light and shadow, and a focus on the theatrical aspects of the scenes he portrayed. "Io Recognised by Her Father" is an example of his skill in illustrating the human emotions and divine interventions that are central to many mythological tales.

The painting is significant for its representation of classical mythology during the Baroque period, reflecting the era's interest in themes of transformation, disguise, and the interplay between the mortal and divine realms. While the exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, it is a testament to Janssens' mastery of the Baroque aesthetic and his ability to breathe life into ancient stories.

As a work of art, "Io Recognised by Her Father" contributes to the understanding of the cultural and artistic context of its time, offering insight into the ways in which mythological subjects were interpreted and visualized by artists of the Baroque period. The painting remains an important piece for the study of Victor Honoré Janssens' oeuvre and the broader history of European art.
