From Tchaikovsky's Maid of Orleans (La Pulzella d'Orleans, La Pucelle d'Orleans, Orleanskaya Deva, Iovanna D'arcova, etc.!)
Conductor: Stefano Ranzani
Giovanna d'Arco: Mirella Freni
Lionel (baritone): Carmelo Caruso
Teatro Regio, Turin, 2002 http://www.teatroregio.torino.it/en/node/664#stagione0203
This love duet takes place close to the opening of the fourth act: "Joan is alone in the forest, distraught. She can't overcome her love for Lionel. He joins her, but as they embrace Joan hears heavenly voices."

Apologies for using a picture from a different Tchaikovsky opera; I don't have any high quality pictures of this one. But I'm sure that won't prevent you from enjoying this lovely duet.
dalla locandina (teatro regio) si può affermare che è Carmelo Corrado Caruso, del quale non c'è nulla in youtube...
