EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a scene from the Metamorphoses of Apuleius, found in the Hall of the Golden Ass at Rocca dei Rossi in San Secondo, Parma, Italy. The artist behind this masterpiece is believed to be Vincenzo Tamagni, although some uncertainty remains. The fresco on the ceiling depicts a mesmerizing moment from Apuleius' renowned work. In this particular scene, we witness an enchanting display of mythology and transformation. A female figure takes center stage as she undergoes a metamorphosis while surrounded by other women. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring life to this ancient tale. The presence of a donkey adds an intriguing element to the composition - symbolizing both mystery and symbolism within the story of "the golden ass". This 16th-century artwork transports us back in time, immersing us in its rich historical context. Located within Rocca dei Rossi's grand hall, this fresco embodies the artistic brilliance that flourished during Italy's Renaissance period.
