Die dargestellte Szene geht auf ein bereits seit dem 16. Jahrhundert beliebtes Thema von Ludovico Ariosto (1474-1533), dem Epos „Orlando furioso“ zurück. Danach verliebt sich die asiatische Prinzessin am Hof Karl des Großen in den Sarazenen Medoro, wobei die beliebten Szenen zeigen, wie Angelica ihren Namen in einen Baum ritzt. Auch Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1696-1770) hat sich 1757 dem Thema gewidmet. Das Thema hier in bewegter Wiedergabe mit dramatisch hinwegziehenden Wolken, Angelica ihren Namen in einen Baum ritzend, während sich Medoro die Sandalen zur Flucht bindet. Über dem Baum erscheint Amor, der die Prinzessin in den einfachen Knecht Medoro verliebt macht. (11105312) (11)
