ABOUT THIS PIECE Baroque Painter Dirck van Baburen's Prometheus Chained by Vulcan was created in 1623 and the painting is in Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. The original size of the work is 202 x 184 cm and is made of oil on canvas. Prometheus stole fire from the gods and gave it to mankind. As punishment, Vulcan chained him to a rock, where an eagle pecked out his liver causing him excruciating pain. Here we see Prometheus being chained, his face contorted with fear, while Mercury laughs at him. Van Baburen borrowed the dramatic illumination and the figure’s sunburned hands and faces from his great model Caravaggio. The Artist: Dirck van Baburen (c. 1595- 1624) was a Dutch painter and one of the Utrecht Caravaggisti. The Utrecht works made between 1621 as 1624, the final years of Baburen's career, merged the visual characteristics learnt from Caravaggio and Manfredi into genre, mythological and history painting.
