Landschap met Actaeon en Diana en haar nimfen Possibly 1774 - 1778

"Landschap met Actaeon en Diana en haar nimfen" (Landscape with Actaeon and Diana and her Nymphs) is a print by Richard Earlom, a British artist known for his mezzotints, created sometime between 1774 and 1778. The print depicts a classical scene: the Greek mythological figure of Actaeon, accidentally stumbling upon the goddess Diana and her nymphs bathing, is transformed into a stag and attacked by his own hounds. The scene is set in a lush, wooded landscape, with a river winding through the center of the composition. The print is a fine example of Earlom's mastery of the mezzotint technique, creating a rich and detailed depiction of both the figures and the landscape. It is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
