About the piece

Dating to approximately 1610, this oil painting captures a poignant moment from the story of Theagenes. The protagonist is rendered in striking lapis-blue armor, his form leaning against a decorative shield while a sword rests in the foreground. The composition balances high-contrast lighting with a sophisticated palette of warm ochres and deep blues, characteristic of the transition from late Mannerism to early Baroque.
