About the piece
Created in 1819, this landmark work by Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres brings a scene from Ariosto's epic 'Orlando Furioso' to life. Ruggiero, mounted on the mythical hippogriff, descends to battle a sea monster and liberate the captive Angelica. The painting is a study in contrasts, pitting the intricate, heavy golden armor of the knight against the luminous, ethereal skin of the figure and the dark, churning ocean.
