Historical Context
The painting depicts a scene from Torquato Tasso's epic poem "Jerusalem Delivered," written in 1581. The story revolves around Tancred, a crusader knight, and Erminia, the daughter of the ruler of Antioch. Erminia hastens to aid Tancred, who has been wounded in combat with the giant Argant.Artistic Significance
Poussin's work is characterized by its lyrical quality, emotionalism, and painterly softness, which are unique to his early period. The painting showcases Herminia cutting off her hair to bind Tancred's wounds, embodying the idea of self-sacrifice for love.Restoration Efforts
The painting was acquired by Catherine II in 1766 from the collection of Jacques-André-Joseph Aved. Over time, it underwent several restorations, including a transfer to a new canvas in 1854, which led to minor flaking and abrasions. In recent years, the State Hermitage's Laboratory for the Scientific Restoration of Easel Paintings has worked to restore the painting to its original glory.Exhibition History
Tancred and Erminia has been exhibited in various locations, including Paris in 1937, Moscow in 1955, Leningrad in 1956, and Paris again in 1960. A variant of the painting is housed at the Barber Institute of Fine Arts in Birmingham, England.Relevance to Mus3ums
