EDITORS COMMENTS
Rinaldo Leaving Armida" is a captivating etching on paper created by Lorenzo Tiepolo between 1751 and 1753. This exquisite work of art is a depiction of a scene from the epic poem "Jerusalem Delivered" (Gerusalemme Liberata) by Torquato Tasso. The poem, first published in 1581, tells the story of the Crusades and the battles between Christian knights and the Saracen king, Tancredi, and the sorceress Armida. In this image, Rinaldo, a Christian knight, is shown leaving Armida's enchanted garden, where he had been held captive under her spell. The moment of departure is filled with tension and emotion, as Rinaldo turns to bid a final farewell to Armida, who clings to him with desperate longing. The figures are beautifully rendered with intricate detail, their expressions conveying the complexities of love, loyalty, and duty. Lorenzo Tiepolo, the son of the renowned Giambattista Tiepolo, masterfully captures the essence of this scene, drawing upon the rich heritage of Italian art and literature. The etching is a testament to the enduring power of storytelling and the ability of art to transport us to another time and place. This historic work of art is now part of the permanent collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The etching is a reminder of the importance of preserving our cultural heritage and the role that art plays in shaping our understanding of history and the human experience.
