This vivid fresco (1544–45) shows sea gods and nymphs in playful struggle. The central figure defends with a lobster-like shield in a dynamic clash of mythic power. Part of the decorative frieze at Castel Sant’Angelo, it celebrates marine mythology and the dramatic vitality of Renaissance imagination.
