Fresco of the Arch of ConstantineMichele Alberti and Jacopo Rocchetti

This fresco (second half of the 16th c.) by Michele Alberti and Jacopo Rocchetti depicts the Arch of Constantine, a triumphal monument in Rome. Set in a romanticized landscape, it reflects the Renaissance fascination with antiquity. Tiny figures at the base emphasize the arch’s grandeur, while grotesque elements frame the scene, linking it to a decorative cycle celebrating Rome’s imperial legacy.
