"Diana en Actaeon" is an engraving by Giovanni Girolamo Frezza, created in 1713. The image depicts a scene from Roman mythology, where the nymph Diana and her companions are surprised by Actaeon, who is then transformed into a stag and hunted down by his own hounds. The print is notable for its intricate detail and realistic depiction of the figures and landscape. The scene is composed in a classical style, with the figures arranged in a balanced and harmonious composition. The print is a good example of the artistic trends of the early 18th century.
