Description |
Engraving after painting by Nicolas Poussin once in the Gallery at Houghton Hall, Norfolk, England. Now in the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, Moscow. Print removed from George P. Marsh’s copy of The Houghton Gallery, vol. 2. Marsh probably wrote the numeral 52 in pencil in the lower left margin. In the scene depicted, the Roman general Scipio returns to her fiancé a young woman captured in combat. The title is sometimes rendered as "Scipio's Noble Deed," and the subject was popular in art and literature. |
