This lithograph, created by Dutch artist Franciscus Bernardus Waanders between 1840 and 1853, depicts the Italian poet Torquato Tasso and Princess Eleonore of Este. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Waanders' mastery in capturing the romanticism of the period, portraying Tasso reading a poem to Eleonore. The detail in the clothing and setting, along with the emotional connection between the figures, contributes to the artistic value of this piece.
