In a palatial renaissance interior, the knight bayard shows his hostess and her two daughters the gold coins he wishes to give them, placed on a table next to a casket and his helmet with a plumed crest. At his feet is his armor and the hilt of his sword leans on the back of a chair. Next to his standing daughters, the seated mother clasps her hands, blessing the knight's greatness of soul. Behind them, a four-poster bed is depicted. In the doorway on the left, an armed guard keeps watch. [1]. Object Type: painting. Genre: genre art. Date: 1827.
