Description
Illustrating a scene from Ludovico Ariosto’s 1532 epic poem Orlando furioso, this drawing shows the sorceress Alcina at right welcoming Roger (Ruggerio) on horseback to her enchanted island. A tale of war, love, and chivalry set against a war between the Christian emperor Charlemagne and the African Saracen King Agramante, the story is filled with fantastical beasts and otherworldly events.
