What does the curator team of the The Metropolitan Museum of Art state about the work of art painted by Pinturicchio? (© - The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)
One of twenty-two panels (14.114.1–.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 sarcophagi.
