About Artwork: (After 1566) "The Intervention of the Sabine Women is one of a series of paintings that show scenes from ancient Roman history. They were probably intended to be inserted into wall panelling. Three other pictures in the series are in the National Gallery’s collection: The Attack on Cartagena, The Continence of Scipio and The Rape of the Sabines. Shortly after the foundation of Rome, the Romans tried to negotiate with the neighbouring Sabines to secure wives, but the Sabine men refused to allow their women to marry the Romans. At a festival to Neptune, the Romans grabbed the Sabine women and fought off their menfolk. This painting shows the episode following the abduction. The Sabine women rush onto the battlefield to hold apart the warring Sabine and Roman armies, imploring their fathers among the Sabines and their husbands among the Romans not to spill each other’s blood. On the left, the Sabines agree to live as one nation with the Romans." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
