Description

Cloelia, a Roman virgin, is in the center of the photo riding a horse. The horse she rides is helping herself and other hostages to flee to safety from Porsenna, their captor, on the other side of the Tiber river. The women on either side of the river are other captive virgins, including children. The woman on the horse behind Cloelia is a fellow captive virgin.
