About the piece

Painted in 1629 by Anthony van Dyck, this monumental work illustrates a scene from Torquato Tasso's epic poem 'Gerusalemme Liberata'. The enchantress Armida, draped in luminous blue and crimson, prepares to bind the sleeping crusader Rinaldo with a garland of flowers, while a siren sings from the water and cupids hover nearby in a lush, atmospheric landscape.
