Theseus Rediscovering His Father's Sword is a c.1638 painting by Nicolas Poussin and Jean Le Maire, acquired in London by Henri d'Orléans, Duke of Aumale in 1860, moved to his château de Chantilly in 1871 and now in the Musée Condé at Chantilly. The Uffizi (inv. 1004) and the Wildenstein collection hold autograph copies of the work, but X-ray examination has shown much retouching of the Chantilly version and so it is accepted as the original of the composition.

- Teseo encuentra la espada de su padre es un cuadro del pintor Nicolas Poussin, realizado en 1638, que se encuentra en el Museo Condé de Chantilly (Oise), Francia. Poussin narra en el cuadro la escena en la que el héroe mítico Teseo encuentra la espada y las sandalias que su padre había ocultado años atrás. El mito ateniense narra que Egeo, el padre de Teseo se acostó ebrio con Etra, hija del rey de Trecén, Piteo. De la relación nacería Teseo, pero su padre no llegaría a conocerlo entonces. Posteriormente, Teseo realizaría un épico viaje a Atenas para conocer a su padre y heredar su trono. (es)

Poussin narra en el cuadro la escena en la que el héroe mítico Teseo encuentra la espada y las sandalias que su padre había ocultado años atrás. El mito ateniense narra que Egeo, el padre de Teseo se acostó ebrio con Etra, hija del rey de Trecén, Piteo. De la relación nacería Teseo, pero su padre no llegaría a conocerlo entonces. Al marcharse de Trecén, Egeo escondió unas sandalias y una espada bajo una gran roca, y encargó a Etra que si tenía un hijo varón capaz de levantar la piedra, recuperara los objetos para que le reconociera como su descendiente. Ese es el momento representado en la obra. Posteriormente, Teseo realizaría un épico viaje a Atenas para conocer a su padre y heredar su trono. (es)

- Theseus Rediscovering His Father's Sword is a c.1638 painting by Nicolas Poussin and Jean Le Maire, acquired in London by Henri d'Orléans, Duke of Aumale in 1860, moved to his château de Chantilly in 1871 and now in the Musée Condé at Chantilly. The Uffizi (inv. 1004) and the Wildenstein collection hold autograph copies of the work, but X-ray examination has shown much retouching of the Chantilly version and so it is accepted as the original of the composition. Such collaborations were common - in the 1630s Poussin only produced small private commissions, with foreground figures in his own hand and background architecture by a specialist painter such as Le Maire. The first record of the painting dates to the 19th century, when it was in the United Kingdom, passing through the hands of John Knight, Higginson and Nieuwenhuis before being acquired by the Duke of Aumale. It shows a scene from Plutarch's Life of Theseus. Theseus's mother Aethra and Theseus himself were both born in Troezen. She had had sex with both Poseidon and the mortal Aegeus, king of Athens, in Troezen on the same night. Before leaving her in Troezen to return to Athens, Aegeus left his sandals and sword under a heavy boulder and instructed that - if Aethra's son could lift the boulder and recover the items under it - he must come to Athens to meet his father. Theseus later managed to do so without effort, as shown in the painting. (en)
