Painting Description
"The Flight of Cloelia With Attendants Over The Tiber" is a notable work by the Flemish Baroque painter Erasmus II Quellin, also known as Erasmus Quellinus the Younger. Born in 1607 in Antwerp, Quellin was a prominent artist of his time, known for his detailed and dynamic compositions that often depicted historical and mythological scenes. This particular painting captures a dramatic moment from Roman history, showcasing Quellin's mastery in rendering both human figures and dynamic action.
The subject of the painting is derived from the legend of Cloelia, a Roman maiden who was taken hostage by the Etruscan king Lars Porsena during the early 5th century BCE. Demonstrating remarkable bravery, Cloelia escaped captivity by swimming across the Tiber River, leading a group of fellow hostages to safety. This act of courage was so admired that Porsena ultimately allowed her to choose half of the remaining hostages to be freed. Quellin's depiction of this event is imbued with a sense of urgency and heroism, capturing the tension and valor of Cloelia's daring escape.
Quellin's composition is characterized by its dynamic arrangement and the fluidity of movement, elements that are hallmarks of the Baroque style. The figures are rendered with meticulous attention to anatomical detail, and the interplay of light and shadow enhances the dramatic effect of the scene. The painting not only reflects Quellin's technical skill but also his ability to convey complex narratives through visual art.
"The Flight of Cloelia With Attendants Over The Tiber" stands as a testament to Quellin's artistic prowess and his contribution to the Baroque movement. It remains an important work for understanding the cultural and artistic milieu of 17th-century Flanders, as well as the enduring appeal of classical themes in European art.
