This print showcases the mesmerizing fresco titled "The shipwreck of Ulysses, detail from the Room of Ulysses" by Pellegrino Tibaldi. Created between 1550 and 1551, this masterpiece is housed in Palazzo Poggi in Bologna, Italy. Immersed in mythology and steeped in Renaissance artistry, this artwork transports viewers into the enchanting world of Greek myth. The room itself is adorned with various episodes from Homer's Odyssey, but it is the shipwreck of Ulysses that steals the spotlight.

This remarkable piece invites us to delve into ancient legends while marveling at its technical brilliance. Its presence within Palazzo Poggi adds another layer of grandeur to an already magnificent setting.
