Procris was accidentally killed by her husband Cephalus. In one version of the story she was brought back to life by the goddess Diana. Here the goddess reconciles the couple & warns them of the dangers of jealousy & unfaithfulness. The story comes from Ovid's ' Metamorphoses' (Book VII) where Diana, goddess of hunting, gave the huntsman Cephalus a magic dog & spear. Ovid's story ends tragically with Cephalus accidentally killing Procris with the spear. The happy ending shown in this painting by Claude is unusual. However, Claude also made a (now lost) picture of the death of Procris. ...

The picture was painted in 1658 for Prince Agostino Chigi (1634 - 1705), a nephew of Pope Alexander VII & a captain of the papal guards. A number of preparatory drawings by Claude are known. ...

An honest woodman who had lost his axe was rewarded by Mercury with a golden one when he denied that his own had been of precious metal. A dishonest woodman thereupon claimed that he had lost a golden axe; Mercury recovered it & showed it was merely of ...
It is not clear whether Uyttenbroeck intended to represent a particular mythological subject here. The scene has been described as the ' Nurture of Bacchus', but it could equally well be a rustic love scene such as that of Daphnis & Chloe. The artist is ...
