EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating fresco titled "Borso d Este, Prince of Ferrara, rendering justice: March from the Room of the Months" transports us back to the Renaissance era in Italy. Painted by Francesco del Cossa between 1467 and 1470, this masterpiece can be found at Palazzo Schifanoia in Ferrara. In this scene, we witness Borso d'Este, a prominent Italian count and member of the aristocracy, as he administers justice. The prince sits on an ornate throne beneath a grand arch adorned with intricate details. His regal presence is enhanced by his noble attire and coat of arms proudly displayed on his shield. Surrounding Borso are charming putti - cherubic figures that symbolize innocence and playfulness. They add a touch of whimsy to the serious proceedings taking place before them. This artwork not only showcases Cossa's exceptional talent but also provides insight into the social structure and values of Renaissance Italy. It highlights the importance placed on justice and governance during this period. As we admire this print from Fine Art Finder, let us appreciate its historical significance as well as its artistic beauty. It serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with society's aspirations for fairness and order throughout history.
