Sculpture of crusader Tancred and Clorinda (from poem Jerusalem Delivered by Torquato Tasso) in Royal Baths Park of Warsaw
Tancred (1075 – December 5 or December 12, 1112) was a Norman leader of the First Crusade who later became Prince of Galilee and regent of the Principality of Antioch. Tancred appears as a character in Torquato Tasso's 16th-century poem Jerusalem Delivered, in which he is portrayed as an epic hero and given a fictional love interest, the pagan warrior-maiden Clorinda Copy of a statue commissioned by Stanislaus Augustus in Italy and placed in the Royal Baths Park in 1791. It illustrates the death of Clorinda from the poem Jerusalem Delivered by Torquato Tasso. After King's death the original sculpture was sold to Prince B. Jabłonowski in 1806, who in turn gave it to Izabela Czartoryska to embellish her estate in Puławy.
