Originally owned by Mar?hal de Cr?uy, the center of this painting shows an elderly woman in an orange tunic, who would be used as a model for a character in Gericault's Massacre at Chios. A dark sky and a temple in the background set off the action in the foreground. Two babies lie crying on the bottom, on the right a man wears yellow armor modeled after the ancient 'lorica,' while on the left Romulus, dressed in a red cloak, watches as the titular action is carried out. Held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art --for 10 points-- name this Poussin work which depicts the Roman army taking women of the namesake tribe.
