The Companions of Rinaldo. Artist: Nicolas Poussin (French, Les Andelys 1594-1665 Rome). Dimensions: 46 1/2 x 40 1/4 in. (118.1 x 102.2 cm). Date: ca. 1633.This canvas probably belonged to the antiquary and collector Cassiano dal Pozzo. It illustrates an episode from Torquato Tasso's (1544-1595) heroic crusader poem <i>Jerusalem Delivered</i> (1580), in which the Christian knights Carlo and Ubaldo confront a dragon in their attempt to rescue Rinaldo from a pagan sorceress. As the first crusade took place in the eleventh century, their antique Roman arms and armor are anachronistic. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
