A scene from the Second Punic War (218-201 BC). In 209 BC a Roman expeditionary army under Publius Cornelius Scipio captured Carthago Nova, Carthage's capital city in Iberia. Among the captives was the beautiful fiancée of the prince Allucius. Scipio summoned her family, who arrived with a ransom of treasure. Scipio refused this and returned her to them, asking only that they be friends to Rome. When they offered the ransom as a present, he accepted it, only to return it immediately as a wedding gift from himself. Allucius then brought over his tribe to support the Roman armies in gratitude. Gian Antonio Pellegrini's original painting of c.1719 is now in the Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna.
