Angelica geneest de wond van Medoro 1757 - 1760

"Angelica geneest de wond van Medoro" (Angelica Heals Medoro's Wound) is an etching created by Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo in 1757-1760. The composition features a dramatic scene from the epic poem *Orlando Furioso* by Ludovico Ariosto. Angelica, the beautiful and powerful sorceress, kneels to tend to the wounded Medoro, a knight in love with her. In the background, a mounted warrior observes the scene. The etching captures the raw emotion of the moment with its detailed lines and contrasting light and shadow. This work is a testament to Tiepolo's skill as an engraver and his ability to convey the beauty and intensity of a classic literary tale.
