Synopsis
Monaldi: A Tale by Washington Allston. This nineteenth-century narrative traces the ardent yet perilous ascent of two rival artists—Monaldi, gentle and inward, and Maldura, brilliant but hollow—whose friendship becomes a crucible for love, envy, and moral vocation. Maldura’s restless ambition and craving for public praise threaten to eclipse his generosity as he pursues the celebrated Rosalia Landi, the beloved of Monaldi. The story follows their movements from Bologna to Florence and Rome, where Monaldi’s devotion to art and to Rosalia is tested by a devastating social world of critics, patrons, and a libertine named Fialto. A fateful painting, a ruined sister, a secret plot, and a string of reversals push the men toward ruin and spiritual reckoning. As tragedy deepens, the tale explores fidelity, guilt, and the possibility of repentance, culminating in a haunting meditation on the costs of genius and the redemptive power of love and faith. Monaldi: A Tale offers a stark moral inquiry wrapped in Romantic gloom and classical artistic ideals.
