Created between 1752-1753, this piece is a study for the ceiling frescoes in the staircase-hall of the Würzburg Residence in Germany. The image features Mercury, the Roman god known as a messenger of gods and patron of trade, standing alongside a woman holding a palette. The artist's skillful use of chalk on paper brings out intricate details and highlights their allegorical significance. Giovanni Battista Tiepolo was not only celebrated in Italy but also gained recognition in Germany and Spain. His talent led to numerous commissions for frescoes in churches and palaces throughout Europe. Additionally, he served as President of the Academy of Padua.
