Notes This is the first watch we have seen with an enamel scene signed by Soiron. Rinaldo and the Wood Nymphs The scene is taken from Torquato Tasso’s (1544-95) romantic epic "Gerusalemme Liberata" (1581), a chivalric romance very popular in its time. Rinaldo’s journey along the Po in the last cantos of the Furioso is sometimes described as a voyage parallel to the homecoming of Homer’s Odysseus. Here, the medieval Christian knight Rinaldo has entered the enchanted forest, where monstrous apparitions have prevented his men from gathering wood to build their war-machines. Suddenly, hundreds of tree nymphs appear, surrounding Rinaldo. Jea
