Rinaldo and Armida
Artist: Angelica Kauffmann (Swiss, 1741–1807)
Date: 1771
Medium: Oil on Canvas
Collection: Yale Center for British Art, New Haven, CT, United States
Description
First exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1772, this depiction of the story of Rinaldo and Armida is taken from Torquato Tasso’s Gerusalemme Liberata (1580), a poetic account of the First Crusade. Rinaldo was a handsome prince, and Armida was a beautiful sorceress sent by the devil to disrupt the crusaders. Armida bewitches Rinaldo but falls in love with him instead, and the pair explore their amorous adventures. The couple is shown at the moment when Rinaldo’s fellow crusaders discover his whereabouts and prepare to rescue him from his enchantment and distractions of love.

I can't believe neil gaiman pulled a jerusalem delivered on this finale
#this is so rinaldo/armida aeneas/dido abandonment if you ask me#a bit the 'stay with me we can be us we can be at peace' vs 'the greatergood tm/godgiven role'#don't think it was intentional. still it's a very funny parallel to me ( and the thought of crowley/armida delights me)#good omens#tasso

Rinaldo impide el suicidio de Armida Cesare Dandini (Florencia 1596 – 1657) 1635 Pintura al óleo sobre lienzo 185x203 cm Inventario 1890 n. 3823
La obra pertenecía a un ciclo de diecinueve cuadros inspirados en los poemas de Ovidio, Ariosto y Tasso, encargados por el cardenal Carlo de' Medici y destinados a decorar su apartamento en el Casino di San Marco. El episodio representado está narrado en el último canto de Jerusalén liberata y se centra en la terrible batalla entre los cruzados y el ejército egipcio durante la cual Rinaldo y Armida se desafían a duelo. La hechicera, después de haber intentado en vano golpear al joven guerrero del que todavía está enamorada, decide suicidarse con la misma flecha utilizada en la pelea. Rinaldo la agarra del brazo y “por detrás la ataca/ quien ya derriba a la fiera hacia su pecho. Armida se volvió y de repente lo miró, porque no lo escuchó cuando llegó por primera vez: alzó sus gritos, quitó con desdén las luces de su amado rostro y se desmayó. La emoción dramática de los versos de Tasso encuentra una confirmación precisa en el cuadro de Dandini, en el que los personajes de tamaño natural se mueven en primer plano como evocando a los héroes de aquel melodrama que a principios de siglo dio sus primeros pasos en Florencia, en la ciudad culta y refinado de la Camerata de' Bardi. El tono dramático de las expresiones, la pose teatral de las figuras, la preciosidad del material pictórico, rico en efectos cromáticos y luminosos, y los refinados detalles ornamentales, reflejan las orientaciones del arte florentino de principios del siglo XVII, fuertemente inspirado en el armonías de “recitar cantando”. El lienzo llegó a las galerías florentinas en 1913, procedente de una colección privada.
Marco del siglo XX.

almost spread misinformation to a uni colleague by saying that armida (jerusalem delivered) was a lesbian
#to which she responded: “ARMIDA IS A LESBIAN????”#tbh it's not like it isn't entirely true but i had to say i was joking#mostly because she still has to do an exam on it and she didn't really finish the poem and idk how my 60yo professor would respond to that#should have said yes for the bit#armida/rinaldo are a lesbian couple to me#jerusalem delivered

Daniel Behle sings "Pensa che In campo armato" from Antonio Tozzi's "Rinaldo"
The motive is a recurring one and was a staple in the 18th century. Rinaldo + Armida, Ruggiero + Alcina … Sometimes grudgingly, sometimes tragically, the hero has to renounce his love or at least postpone his desires to follow the call of duty. Tozzi writes an aria for the voice of reason that in its virtuosity deserves a hero. Tozzi is probably not one of the "Greats" and a lot of his music is craftsmanship. However, there are more than just a few passages in this particular piece that lift it well above and beyond. The coloraturas are interesting and "galant", and the little chromatic figures that kindly urge the hero on show that it's important for Tozzi to establish that the reasonable one (who may be called Ubaldo) doesn't (only) strongarm Rinaldo into making the right decision; he wants to convince him.
Oh, and obviously, Daniel Behle is excellent. Libretto and translation below the cut
Bayreuth, Markgräfliches Opernhaus 2023 Aufnahme: BR Antonio Tozzi, Rinaldo (1775) Translation below
Pensa, che in campo armato il tuo valor ti chiama. Del tuo valor la fama combatterà con te.
Scordati il volto amato, fuggi quel dolce incanto. Maggiore d'ogni vanto è il trionfar di te. * Consider, that onto the battlefield Your valor summons you. The renown of your valour Will fight beside you.
Forget the beloved face, Flee that sweet enchantment. Greater than any vain glory, Is your triumph. * Wisse, Dich ruft die Ehre, Dich ruft die Pflicht zum Streite. Dort wird Dir Ruhm zur Seite, der Sieg zum Lohn Dir seyn.
Flieh aus der Wollust Armen! Fort! lass sie ohn' Erbarmen, Dich selbst als Held besiegen, muss höchster Ruhm Dir seyn.
*Artwork: Tiepolo, Rinaldo & Armida
