Om maleriet
The subject of this painting, which seems uncommon in art, is from the Roman historian Livy's, History of Rome. The brother of the Roman Consul Scipio, Publius Scipio Africanus, lieutenant in the Roman army, had his young son captured by the enemy, whose leader was the Asian King Antiochus, hearing of Africanus's illness, sent ambassadors to return him to his father.
