OriginalThe Rape of the Daughters of Leucippus by Peter Paul Rubens. Based on Greek mythology, the painting depicts Castor and Pollux abducting the daughters of Leucippus, Phoebe and Hilaeira.
Reason
This comes directly from Alte Pinakothek where the painting is housed and is unaltered, so probably the best version to get so far.
