Helle on a Ram ca. 1509 Pinturicchio One of twenty-two panels (–.22) forming the ceiling from the Palace of Pandolfo Petrucci, called Il Magnifico, Siena. The general distribution and partition of the ceiling appears to derive from that of a vaulted and painted ceiling in Nero's Golden House in Rome. Many of the individual figures also seem to derive from antique works of art– especially Helle on a Ram. Pinturicchio (Italian, Perugia 1454–1513 Siena). Italian, Umbria. ca. 1509. Fresco, transferred to canvas and attached to wood panels. Paintings-Decorative
