EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a fascinating fresco titled "Sign of the Zodiac: The Virgin" by Giovanni Maria Falconetto. The artwork is located in the Palazzo d Arco in Mantua, Italy and dates back to around 1520. In this intricate piece, we see a man standing before the mausoleum of Theodoric in Ravenna, engrossed in his drink. Above him are medallions featuring portraits of Emperors Titus and Domitian, adding an air of regality to the scene. Below these medallions, there is a legend associated with the birth of the constellation corresponding to the sign. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully depicts various elements within this composition. From the flowing water fountain to birds perched on top of tombstones, every aspect adds depth and symbolism to this Renaissance masterpiece. The painting not only showcases Falconetto's artistic prowess but also highlights astrology's significance during that era. It provides us with a glimpse into ancient Roman beliefs and their connection between celestial bodies and human life.
