About the piece
This late 17th-century painting by Sebastiano Ricci captures the legendary encounter between the Roman King Tarquin the Elder and the augur Attius Navius. Executed with the luminous color and vigorous brushwork characteristic of the Venetian school, the work centers on the dramatic contrast between the king's vibrant red drapery and the kneeling priest's focused gesture.
