Armida Encounters the Sleeping Rinaldo

A woman in flowing orange and yellow drapery sits on a cloud beside a winged cupid, while a second woman leans from behind toward a helmeted man in armor who sleeps against a rock by a stream. Soft blue sky, billowing clouds and tall trees frame this oil painting.

Español: Armida encuentra al Rinaldo dormido

Una mujer con drapeados naranjas y amarillos fluidos se sienta sobre una nube junto a un querubín alado, mientras otra mujer se inclina desde atrás hacia un hombre con armadura y casco que duerme apoyado en una roca junto a un arroyo. Un cielo azul suave, nubes y árboles altos enmarcan esta pintura al óleo.
