Rembrandt adopted the "Baroque" style of painting, thanks to which he would depict female mythological figures with great grandeur. Throughout the performance of "Baroque" artists, objects have always depicted drama, luxury and a rich lifestyle. Rembrandt was famous for the personification of mythological figures as emotional and spiritual people. Rembrandt achieved his innovative style in his masterpiece “Danee (Danaë)”, created in 1636.

In Greek mythology, “Dani”, the mother of the hero Perseus, symbolizes the woman of purity, who welcomes Zeus and is saturated with a shower of gold.

Rembrandt originally painted this masterpiece, considering his rich wife Saskia Dana. Later, because of her death, however, he rejected this idea and painted the masterpiece by his mistress Gertie Durks as a model for Danae. In general, the subject of clothing from the picture is that Lord Zeus is coming, and Danae will be delivered with gold.

This 185 cm × 203 cm (73 inch × 80 inch) canvas work was part of the collection of French art collector Pierre Crozat. From the eightieth century "Dani" was exhibited at the Hermitage in St. Louis. Petersburg, Russia. At the end of June 15, 1985, however, the young history acidic acid dyed and cut twice with a sharp knife. As a result, unfortunately, the central zone of the masterpiece was completely destroyed, leaving only a mixture of color. The process of restoring this sensitive and bold masterpiece began immediately. After an intense and exhausting effort, from 1985 to 1997, scientists, including Gerasimov, A.G. Rahman, G.A. Shirokov and ETC. Aleshin, managed to restore "Danae." Well-known scholars of art appreciated the efforts and even commented: "more than 70 percent of the paint surface remained intact."

This picture continues to captivate art historians and philosophy. "Danae" allows the viewer to feel spirituality with added grandeur, which is actually quite embarrassing experience.
