Jacopo da Empoli (1551-1640), also known as Jacopo Chimenti, was an Italian painter mostly active in Florence where he trained in the workshop of Maso da San Friano (1531-1571). His painting is mainly inspired by the early masters of the 16th century and to a popular and devout art. The young woman depicted in the painting is the personification of temperance, one of the four Cardinal Virtues, the others being prudence, justice and fortitude. Temperance refers to the practice of self- control, abstention, discretion, and moderation. In art the Cardinal Virtues are depicted with symbolic items and among the symbols representing temperance there is water and wine in two jugs. And that’s exactly what is represented in this painting. A young woman pours water from a jug into a bowl filled with wine. This is a reference to the classical world, when winemaking produced a thick, liqueur-like wine, and water was added to dilute it. It is a work of exquisite quality and, moreover, very rare and important, as few paintings of profane subjects by Jacopo da Empoli have come down to us. The painting still has its original carved and ivory lacquered wooden frame. It is a frame that matches very well with the tones of the canvas itself.

It is a gentle and graceful Danae the one portrayed by Giovanni Giacomo Sementi. A painting in which the Milanese painter Pier Francesco Cittadini also collaborated by painting the golden basin filled with flowers to the left of the scene. The work shows various pictorial influences; from the Bolognese Emilian style, to that of Ludovico Carracci (1555 - 1619) and Guido Reni (1575 - 1642), to the Baroque and Roman style. The work features an elegant red drapery which serves as the background to the entire scene, but the real protagonist is the young woman with long red hair who is lying on a bed covered by a white sheet. The girl is naked except for a lapis lazuli blue mantle...
