Diana discovers Callisto's misstep

Diana discovers Callisto's misstep, a painting by Cornelius van Poelenburgh, dates from 1594-1667. It is part of the Bavarian State Painting Collections. The painting's dimensions are 23.8 cm x 19 cm.

The artwork depicts a pastoral scene. In the foreground, several nude figures are grouped near a rocky outcrop. One woman lies reclining, seemingly distraught, while another stands nearby, possibly interacting with her. A third, more distant figure, possibly Diana, stands observing the scene. The background features a rolling landscape with trees, hills, and a distant horizon under a pale sky. The overall style suggests a classical or mythological theme.
