PERUZZI, Baldassare
(b. 1481, Ancaiano, d. 1536, Roma)

Decoration of the Sala delle Prospettive

1515-17
Frescoes
Villa Farnesina, Rome

The hall seems to be open up to the sides through colonnades onto terraces that present distant views on the skyline of the city of Rome. The painted architecture supports a frieze with a series of scenes from ancient myths.
