Painting of nude women bathing in a forest stream, with a clothed man gesturing at left and dark trees overhead.

Diana Bathing with her Nymphs with Actaeon and Callisto

A group of nude women bathe in a shallow stream beside a dark, dense forest, while a clothed man stands at left-center, gesturing toward them. Warm light falls on the bodies as the trees and undergrowth sink into deep shadow, giving the painting strong chiaroscuro contrast.
