"Tancred baptising Clorinda" is a painting by the Italian artist Flaminio Allegrini, created in the 16th century during the Mannerist period. The artwork depicts a scene from Torquato Tasso's epic poem "Gerusalemme Liberata" ("Jerusalem Delivered"), which narrates the fictionalized story of the First Crusade, wherein the Christian knight Tancred unwittingly kills his beloved, the Saracen warrior Clorinda, in battle. Recognizing her as she lies dying, Tancred honors her last request to be baptized as a Christian before she passes away.

Allegrini's interpretation of this poignant moment is characterized by the dramatic use of light and shadow, typical of the Mannerist style, which emphasizes the emotional intensity of the scene. The figures are rendered with elongated proportions and elegant poses, capturing the tragic beauty of the narrative. The painting is a testament to the enduring influence of Tasso's literary work on the visual arts and reflects the cultural and religious themes prevalent in the art of the period.

As a work of historical and artistic significance, "Tancred baptising Clorinda" by Flaminio Allegrini is an important example of the way in which Mannerist painters engaged with literary sources to create complex, emotionally charged compositions that resonated with contemporary audiences. The painting not only showcases Allegrini's technical skill and stylistic preferences but also offers insight into the broader cultural context of the late Renaissance in Italy.
