EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Fragonard, we witness the intense moment when Ruggiero blinds the Orc. The artist's masterful use of pen and ink, chalk, and wash on paper brings to life the heroic scene from Orlando Furioso by Ariosto. The composition is filled with drama as Ruggiero, a valiant knight adorned in armor and helmet, confronts the monstrous Orc. With determination in his eyes and strength in his grip, he raises his weapon high above his head. The viewer can almost feel the tension building as Ruggiero prepares to strike. Fragonard's attention to detail is remarkable; every line and stroke contributes to the overall impact of the artwork. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to both characters - Ruggiero's muscular form stands out against the menacing figure of the Orc. Hovering above them is a magnificent winged horse, symbolizing courage and freedom. Its presence adds an element of fantasy to this already fantastical scene. This print captures not only Fragonard's artistic brilliance but also showcases a significant moment in literature. It serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with storytelling throughout history. Displayed proudly in any collection or gallery space, this piece invites viewers into a world where heroes battle monsters and triumph over adversity – an eternal tale that continues to inspire us today.
