Rinaldo Abandons Armida

Lorenzo Baldissera Tiepolo (1736-1776), after Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1696-1770), etching, c. 1775

The scene depicted here is the same as in the adjacent etching by Giovanni Domenico, Rinaldo abandoning Armida. Both brothers based themselves on works by their father: Giovanni Domenico on a fresco in the Villa Valmarana in Vicenza, Lorenzo on a painting in the palace in Würzburg. Giovanni Domenico’s etching technique is somewhat looser and bolder than that of his younger brother.
