"A Scene from Ariosto's Orlando Furioso, Canto 7: Ruggiero Defends Himself Against the Guardians of Alcina's Palace" is a notable painting by the French artist Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1732–1806). Created in the 18th century, this work is an exemplification of the Rococo style, for which Fragonard is widely celebrated. The painting draws its subject from Ludovico Ariosto's epic poem "Orlando Furioso," which was first published in 1516 and became a popular source of inspiration for artists during the Renaissance and Baroque periods.

Fragonard's canvas vividly depicts a scene from the seventh canto of the poem, where the knight Ruggiero, one of the central characters, is shown defending himself against the mythical creatures that guard the palace of the enchantress Alcina. The narrative captured in the painting is rich with chivalric romance, fantasy, and drama, themes that are characteristic of both Ariosto's literary work and Fragonard's artistic oeuvre.

The painting is notable for its dynamic composition, dramatic use of light and shadow, and the fluidity of its brushstrokes, all of which contribute to the sense of movement and intensity in the scene. Fragonard's ability to convey the emotional and physical tension of the encounter is particularly admired, as is his use of color to enhance the fantastical elements of the narrative.

As a work of art, "A Scene from Ariosto's Orlando Furioso, Canto 7: Ruggiero Defends Himself Against the Guardians of Alcina's Palace" is significant for its representation of 18th-century French art and its interpretation of a classic Italian epic. It is a testament to Fragonard's skill as a painter and his influence on the Rococo movement. The painting is held in high regard by art historians and is studied for its stylistic qualities and its place within the broader context of European art history.
