Légende

Josaphat Enthroned Tempted by a Naked Woman; Barlaam und Josaphat, 1469. Additional Info: In his whole-hearted effort to embrace Christianity, Josaphat took a vow of chastity. Here he resists the charms of a beautiful woman sent to entice him. Concerns about the temptations of the flesh and the role of women as seductresses were constant themes in literature throughout the later Middle Ages and the Renaissance.
