Cimon en Pero
Ref: sk-c-1802
Pero secretly breastfeeds her father Cimon in prison, sustaining him when he was sentenced to death by starvation. Pero thus kept him alive and he was eventually pardoned. This story from Roman antiquity is about ultimate charity and self-sacrifice. The painting is a rare masterpiece by the young and short-lived Rembrandt pupil, Willem Drost.
