Pietro Gabrini (1856-1926), the definition of plot

[John Preston]

Simply by venerable experts Guriev , Igor , Toinen, IV, Us-tin, Amateur , and other distinguished members of the forum at least in determining the pattern of the plot .
Painting by Pietro Gabrini (1856-1926), oil on canvas , oil, 1.20 to 1.70 meters.
Perhaps it is not certain as to form genre scene , and yet a particular plot of ancient history ?
Some speaker - whom he may be - some kind of says it in the presence of the patricians - nobles .

I would appreciate your opinion.

Sincerely , John Preston.

I think that the picture on the subject of "Reading the poem of Troy ." He has a very similar pattern with the same name and with virtually the same characters . I assume that because everyone knows that the " Iliad " - something long and reading it could drag on , then he wrote a few paintings on the subject - as if depicting the different stages of reading <! - ~ 1 ~ ->. Or maybe they have and " Odyssey " to listen to your picture ...
By the way , he did not Gabrina and Gabrini .
