Nuño Salido ziet slechte voortekenen voor de zonen van Lara in deze oorlog 1612

This etching, titled "Nuño Salido ziet slechte voortekenen voor de zonen van Lara in deze oorlog" (Nuño Salido Sees Bad Omens for the Sons of Lara in this War), was created by the Italian artist Antonio Tempesta in 1612. The print depicts a scene from the Spanish epic poem "The Seven Sons of Lara" and shows a group of seven armored knights on horseback with their leader Nuño Salido. The artwork, which is housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases the artist's meticulous attention to detail in capturing the figures' armor and horses. The dynamic composition and dramatic use of light and shadow emphasize the tension of the moment. The print is a compelling example of the artist's skill in capturing the dramatic narratives of historical literature through the medium of etching.
