Intrigue fills the air as we witness a pivotal moment between these lovers. Formosante, a princess of Babylon, stands gracefully beside her father, the king, who looks on with both pride and concern. Dressed in ornate oriental costumes adorned with feathers and turbans, they exude regality. Amazan, portrayed as a shepherd or hunter figure, gazes intently at his beloved from afar. His bow and arrow symbolize his determination to win her heart against all odds. Their love is forbidden due to their different social statuses but transcends societal norms.
