Pietro Ricchi, il Lucchese (Italian, 1606-1675) The wounded Tancred, cared for by Erminia, n.d.

Tancred, a Christian warrior, lies wounded after slaying the giant Argantes. Tancred is helped by his squire and by Erminia, a Saracen princess, in love with the Christian knight. The warrior will be restored to life and eventually united with Erminia. The subject is from Tasso’s epic poem 'Jerusalem Delivered' (1581) which describes the First Crusade (1096–1099).
