Torquato Tasso Jerusalem Delivered ERMINIA & THE SHEPHERDS Domenichino Zampieri
This is an illustration / print that has been taken from a book dated 1902 and is ready for framing. Measures approximately 12 x 9 1/2 inches. There is an image text summary on the attached rice paper.
The poem, which in detail bears almost no resemblance to the actual history or cultural setting of the Crusades (in fact, at the start of the poem it is said that the crusaders took Constantinople and killed Alexios I Komnenos and conquered the Sultanate of Rum), tells of the initial disunity and setbacks of the Christians and their ultimate success in taking Jerusalem in 1099. The main historical leaders of the First Crusade feature, but much of the poem is concerned with romantic sub-plots involving entirely fictional characters, except for Tancredi, who is identified with the historical Tancred, Prince of Galilee. The three main female characters begin as Muslims, have romantic entanglements with Christ
