This producing company has released during the past few weeks a number of pictures giving romantic stories taken from Italian history. All of them, including this of today, have had for their backgrounds the beautiful palaces and gardens, with their columned porches, grand stairways, etc., that the old-time heroes and heroines actually saw. The idea seems to be to call back these long-dead players of life's real drama and to make them as nearly as art will permit, live once more their stories for us. It is done in the costumes of the time and is gorgeously colored. This picture, with its fairly dramatic story, its beautiful scenes and accurate settings, is an excellent offering for the public. It is instructive and it is also entertaining. - The Moving Picture World, September 14, 1912
