EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the exquisite fresco artwork titled "Mercurius, 1517-18" by Giulio Romano. Located in the Villa Farnesina, Rome, Italy, this masterpiece can be found in the Loggia of Cupid and Psyche. The image showcases one vault pendentive depicting Mercurius. Created based on a draft by Raphael himself between 1517 and 1518, this fresco is a testament to the talent of Romano and his fellow apprentices: Raffaellino del Colle, Giovan Francesco Penni, and Giovanni da Udine. The painting beautifully portrays scenes from Apuleius' "The Golden Ass" specifically focusing on Cupid and Psyche's love story. Intricate details such as blooming flora, fruit-laden branches, and playful putti enhance the overall composition. The rib vault design adds architectural grandeur to this stunning piece of art. This fresco not only showcases Romano's artistic prowess but also highlights his deep understanding of botany and natural history. It seamlessly combines elements of science with mythological storytelling. As you admire this print from Fine Art Finder, let yourself be transported back to the 16th century when artists like Romano were pushing boundaries in both artistry and architecture. Revel in the beauty that lies within each brushstroke while appreciating how it harmoniously blends with its surroundings in Villa Farnesina's Loggia di Amore e Psiche.
