This print showcases the magnificent "Room of Olympus" fresco, created by Italian artist Giambattista Zelotti in approximately 1557. Located in the Villa Godi Malinverni in Lonedo di Lugo di Vicenza, Veneto, Italy, this masterpiece transports viewers to a mythical realm filled with gods and goddesses. The fresco depicts an ethereal scene where various deities recline on clouds above architectural ruins. At the center of attention are Jupiter and Juno, radiating their divine presence. Other notable figures include Cybele, the goddess of architecture with a tower adorning her head; Ceres, the goddess of harvest holding a bundle of ears; Mercury; Cronus, the god of time wielding a scythe; and Diana, the goddess of hunting armed with her bow.
