Ferrara, Palazzo Costabili o Palazzo di Ludovico il Moro (oggi sede del Museo Archeologico Nazionale o di Spina), Aula Costabiliana o Sala del Tesoro, volta, affreschi cinquecenteschi di Benvenuto Tisi, detto il Garofalo: particolare con giovani dame, bimbo con al guinzaglio uno scimmiotto, tralci di vite e giovane con manto e berretto vermigli. Lungo i lati del soffitto un ampia balconata da cui pendono tappeti orientali: una galleria di personaggi, molti dei quali con strumenti musicali, affacciati in maniera disinvolta a testimoniare con garbo e misura il loro amore per l arte, la musica e la poesia. In una suggestiva scenografia, oltre la balconata si apre un cielo turchino, su cui e strutturato un gazebo con rami carichi di frutta e tralci sospesi, annodati alla balaustra. La sala e un hortus conclusus, un giardino segreto voluto dal padrone di casa per i suoi importanti ospiti. Al centro dell apertura illusionistica sono un fastoso rosone in legno intagliato e dorato e una finta architettura che funge da copertura e al tempo stesso da decorazione. Tutt intorno corre un fregio a grottesche entro cui compaiono medaglioni con scene mitologiche e storie dell antica Roma.); Ghigo Roli; Italian, out of copyright

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing detail from the vault of the Hall of the Treasure in Palazzo Costabili, Ferrara, Italy. Painted by Benvenuto Tisi da Garofalo in the 16th century, this fresco showcases an exquisite scene filled with elegance and charm. In this particular section of the fresco, we see a delightful putto holding onto a monkey's leash while surrounded by vine shoots. Standing nearby is a young gentleman adorned in a vibrant red vermilion mantle and hat. The attention to detail is remarkable as every brushstroke brings these figures to life. The ceiling itself is like an aristocratic showcase, featuring portraits of rare elegance that reflect the refined tastes of the time. Alongside these portraits are Oriental rugs hanging from a large balcony, creating an atmosphere of luxury and opulence. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported into a world where music, poetry, and art reign supreme. The characters depicted lean from the balcony with musical instruments in hand, expressing their love for creativity with grace and poise. Beyond the balcony lies a picturesque blue sky adorned with branches heavy with fruit and suspended vines – an enchanting illusion that adds depth to this secret garden-like setting. The room itself exudes grandeur; its centerpiece being an ornate carved wooden rosette covered in gold leaf. Overall, this print offers us a glimpse into Renaissance splendor through Garofalo's masterful brushwork and intricate details. It serves as both a testament to artistic skill and as an invitation to immerse ourselves in history's most elegant moments.
