EDITORS COMMENTS
The print of "Rinaldo abandoning Armida, 1720-62" by Francois Joullain captures a moment of intense emotion and drama. The image depicts a scene from the epic poem "Jerusalem Delivered" where Rinaldo, a knight, is seen leaving Armida behind. In this engraving, we witness the powerful hand gestures and expressions that convey the heart-wrenching farewell between these two characters. Set in the enchanting backdrop of eighteenth-century France, this artwork showcases the intricate details of their attire. Rinaldo's armor shines with elegance while Armida's dress flows gracefully around her figure. The inclusion of an ostrich feather on his helmet adds an element of grandeur to his character. Francois Joullain skillfully brings to life Charles Antoine Coypel's literary masterpiece through his masterful engravings. This particular piece exemplifies Joullain's ability to capture moments filled with tension and passion. Displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print serves as a testament to French heritage art and literature. It invites viewers into a world where melodrama unfolds against a picturesque country setting. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, we are transported back in time to witness Rinaldo's difficult decision - torn between duty as a knight and love for Armida. Francois Joullain immortalizes their story through his artistic interpretation, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty of visual arts and the power of storytelling within one frame.
