OriginalPerseus and Andromeda by the Flemish artist Peter Paul Rubens featuring Perseus and Andromeda after the former's defeat of Medusa, whose reflection appears on Perseus' shield. The bottom of the painting partially shows Cetus, killed by Perseus earlier.
Reason
The high-res version has probably appeared at the Hermitage museum website recently, since I didn't find it during article's creation last year. Perhaps one of the best depictions of Perseus and Andromeda in art.
