EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating painting titled "Angelica is liberated by Roger (Ruggero, Ruggiero) rides on a hippoclaw" takes us back to the 18th century. Created by the talented artist Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, this oil on canvas masterpiece can be found in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. The scene depicted in the painting is from Ludovico Ariosto's epic poem "Orlando Furioso". It portrays a knight named Roger rescuing Angelica from her captor. Riding on a mythical creature called a hippoclaw, Roger fearlessly battles against a monstrous dragon to free his beloved. Ingres skillfully captures the intensity and drama of this moment through his meticulous brushstrokes and attention to detail. The composition showcases Roger's heroic stance as he wields his lance with determination while Angelica gazes at him with gratitude and relief. This artwork not only reflects Renaissance influences but also embodies themes of heroism, chivalry, and liberation. It serves as an ode to literature and showcases Ingres' mastery in capturing both human emotions and fantastical elements within one frame. As we admire this painting today, we are transported into an imaginary world where knights embark on daring quests for love and honor. Through Ingres' artistic vision, we witness the triumph of good over evil and celebrate the timeless power of bravery and selflessness.
