Mercurio che ordina a Calipso di liberare Ulisse — Storia e analisi

Durante i suoi vagabondaggi, Ulisse incontra la ninfa Calipso, che si innamora di lui e lo tiene prigioniero sulla sua isola. Giove poi invia Mercurio per ordinarle di lasciare Ulisse tornare da sua moglie. Lairesse realizzò questo dipinto, insieme ad altre opere che rappresentano l'amore e la devozione esemplari, per gli appartamenti di Maria Stuart nel Palazzo di Soestdijk.
