Nuño Salido vertelt de zonen van Lara van het verraad en wordt gedood door een Moor 1612

"Nuño Salido tells the sons of Lara of the betrayal and is killed by a Moor" is a 1612 etching by Italian artist Antonio Tempesta (1555-1630). The dynamic scene depicts a dramatic moment from the Spanish epic "The Ballad of the Infantes de Lara," with a Moorish warrior on horseback killing Nuño Salido, a knight who has warned the Infantes about the Moorish treachery. Tempesta's detailed etching, now in the Rijksmuseum, showcases his skill in rendering battle scenes with a heightened sense of realism and emotion. This artwork is a prime example of the Renaissance-era interest in historical narratives and the use of printmaking to disseminate them to a wide audience.
