Size: 253 x 301 cm,
Notes: The story represented in this painting is taken from Plutarch. Antiochus (324-261 BC), son of Seleucus I, King of Syria, had fallen ill of a mysterious disease. Erasistratos, his father's personal physician, discovered the cause only when he felt his patient's heartbeat become violent and irregular on the queen's entering the room; Antiochos had fallen hopelessly in love with his young stepmother Stratonice. Seleukos I then magnanimously gave up his wife, offering her to his son as his bride.
