Image description

Antonio Zucchi, RA (Venice 1726 – Rome 1796). Oil painting on canvas, Angelica, and Medoro carving his Name on the Trunk of a Tree, by Antonio Zucchi, RA (Venice 1726 – Rome 1796), 1773. Angelica and Medoro are two characters from the sixteenth-century Italian epic Orlando Furioso by Ludovico Ariosto. Angelica was an Asian princess at the court of Charlemagne who fell in love with the Saracen or Moor knight Medoro, and eloped with him to China. Orlando was the main character of the poem but popular scenes in art show the love between Angelica and Medoro, Angelica nursing Medoro, and Angelica, usually, carving their names into a tree. It was Boiardo, rather, who has Medoro falling on love with Angelica. Here ANGELICA has already been written and he has got as far as MEI One of a set of six overdoor paintings. Nostell Priory, West Yorkshire (Accredited Museum)
