"Diana and Nymphs Sleeping Visited by Satyrs" is a notable oil painting by the Flemish Baroque artist Abraham Janssens van Nuyssen, created in the early 17th century. Janssens, who was born in Antwerp in 1567 and died in 1632, was a contemporary of Peter Paul Rubens and an important figure in the development of the Flemish Baroque style. His work is characterized by a strong Caravaggesque influence, with dramatic chiaroscuro and a robust, realistic approach to the human figure.

The painting depicts a mythological scene drawn from classical antiquity, featuring the Roman goddess Diana, known as Artemis in Greek mythology, the goddess of the hunt, the moon, and chastity. In the artwork, Diana is portrayed at rest with her companions, the nymphs, who are also asleep. Their tranquil repose is intruded upon by satyrs, creatures from Roman and Greek mythology that are half-man and half-goat and are often associated with Dionysian revelry and unbridled lust.

Janssens' composition masterfully contrasts the serene and chaste figures of Diana and her nymphs with the lecherous and mischievous satyrs, creating a narrative tension that reflects the themes of purity and temptation. The artist's use of light and shadow not only enhances the three-dimensionality of the figures but also contributes to the mood of the scene, highlighting the vulnerability of the sleeping nymphs and the stealthy intrusion of the satyrs.

"Diana and Nymphs Sleeping Visited by Satyrs" is an exemplary work of Janssens' oeuvre and is significant for its artistic merit and its representation of Baroque themes and techniques. The painting is held in high regard for its detailed rendering, compositional skill, and its evocative portrayal of a mythological subject that has been interpreted by artists throughout the history of art. The artwork remains an important piece for the study of Flemish Baroque painting and the influence of Caravaggio on Northern European artists of the period.
