Description:
Size: 61.6 x 76.3 cm,
Notes: The wounded Medoro is tended by Angelica, while Cupid ensures she will fall in love with him (Ariosto, Orlando Furioso, XIX, 19). A pentimento is visible, where the arrow was placed further to the right. The painting may have been made for Mazarin during Romanelli's first visit to France in 1646-8, although there are arguments for a dating of a decade earlier. It was engraved by Jean Charles Le Vasseur as Tancred and Erminia.
