The Continence of Scipio is a historical painting by Jan Tengnagel, depicting the legendary moment when Scipio Africanus, the Roman general, refused to take a captured Carthaginian war trophy as a personal prize. The scene captures the moral integrity and restraint of Scipio, reflecting the values of Roman virtue. The painting is part of a series inspired by the story of Scipio's self-discipline, which has been a subject of artistic interpretation for centuries.
