The Flight of Florimell
The Flight of Florimell is an 1819 oil painting by the American artist Washington Allston. It depicts a scene from The [Faerie Queene] by the Elizabethan Era English poet Edmund Spenser. Romantic in style, it is distinctly Gothic in tone with a frightened heroine being pursued on horseback.
Today the painting is in the collection of the Detroit Institute of Arts in Michigan, having been acquired in 1944.
