Marco Cambini

Jacques Callot after Donato Mascagni

National Gallery of Art

This is an illustration of a confrontation in a rustic landscape. Three figures are overpowering a fourth figure, who appears wounded and holding his head. The figures are armed and wearing historical garments. The background shows trees, a body of water, and a distant boat. The detailed texture and line work resemble a historical etching. Text at the bottom suggests a narrative for the image.
