The fresco, located in Palazzo Schifanoia in Ferrara, Italy, depicts a mesmerizing scene filled with symbolism and rich imagery. At the center of the composition stands Minerva, the goddess of wisdom and warfare. She represents strength and intelligence as she triumphantly presides over the astrological symbol of Aries, a ram.
