Pietro Ricchi, il Lucchese (Italian, 1606-1675)
The wounded Tancred, cared for by Erminia, n.d.
Tancred, a Christian warrior, lies wounded after slaying the giant Argantes. Tancred is helped by his squire and by Erminia, a Saracen princess, in love with the Christian knight. The warrior will be restored to life and eventually united with Erminia. The subject is from Tasso’s epic poem 'Jerusalem Delivered' (1581) which describes the First Crusade (1096–1099).

Für alle deutschsprachigen queer(freundlich)en Christ*innen würde ich unbedingt dieses Video von Rezo empfehlen. Er bringt das echt gut auf den Punkt, was mich an dieser Seite vom Christentum so aufregt. Den Schluss fand ich auch echt schön.🥰
For all Non-Germans, it's a video where a famous German youtuber, Rezo, reacts to radical christians on tiktok who tell you that you go to hell or whatever for being gay, who claim that real men go to war and modern music is demonic and all that jazz. He transfers a lot of good points about why this is bullcrap. ;)
