Peter Paul Rubens' 'Roman Charity (Cimon and Pero)' captures a poignant moment of selflessness and sacrifice from Roman legend. This Baroque masterpiece, with its dramatic lighting and emotional intensity, makes a striking addition to any art collection.

This dramatic oil painting depicts the scene of 'Roman Charity', a story from ancient Roman history and mythology. It portrays a young woman, Pero, breastfeeding her imprisoned and starving father, Cimon, who has been condemned to death. The composition is dominated by the figures of Pero and Cimon, set against a dark, undefined background, typical of the Baroque style. The artist masterfully uses light and shadow to highlight the emotional intensity of the scene, focusing on the expressions of compassion and desperation. The rich, warm colours of Pero's garments and the stark contrast with Cimon's aged and gaunt appearance further enhance the drama. As a fine art print, this work brings a touch of historical gravitas and artistic mastery to any space. Its powerful narrative and striking visual composition make it a compelling conversation piece, ideal for adding depth and character to a living room, study, or hallway. The dramatic use of light and shadow creates a captivating focal point, while the classical subject matter adds a sense of timeless elegance.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
