See also: Victorian novelist Joseph Henry Shorthouse read about Gualberto in an Italian travel guide, and he was so taken with the story of Gualberto's forgiving the murderer of his brother Hugo that he used it as the climax of his philosophical romance (1881), John Inglesant. In chapter 32, Shorthouse re-enacts the scene: John, looking like St George, forgives Malvolti and lays his sword on the altar of a wayside chapel. Sir Edward Burne-Jones illustrates the event in his watercolor "The Merciful Knight" (1863). The watercolor is included in the Wikipedia article "John Gualbert".
