Jupiter Disguised as Diana Seducing Callisto

Jupiter Disguised as Diana Seducing Callisto is a painting by Angelica Kauffman, painted during her 1766-1781 stay in Great Britain and now in a private collection. It shows Jupiter in disguise as Diana seducing Callisto. It was engraved by Thomas Burke.

Part of a pair with Orpheus and Eurydice (the same size and format), they were both probably first owned by the French lawyer Charles Alexandre de Calonne (1734–1802). They were then sold at Skinner and Dyke auction in London on 27 March 1795 for 67 guineas to Sir Drummond Cospatrick Hamilton-Spencer-Smith, 5th Baronet (1876–1955). They were later acquired in the 1960s by a private collector, whose children sold the paintings on 5 July 2015 at Christie's for £206,500.
