Jacob Jordaens, a prominent Flemish Baroque artist, painted “The sleeping Antiope approached by Jupiter.” This painting depicts the mythological story of Jupiter transforming himself into a satyr to seduce the nymph Antiope. The scene showcases Jupiter, in the guise of a satyr, about to approach the sleeping Antiope, while a cupid, with a playful smile, and a figure, likely a satyr, observing the encounter with a finger to their lips, fill the background. The painting is known for its dynamic composition, vibrant colors, and detailed figures.
