The Month of September - The Triumph of Vulcan and the Sign of Libra
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a mesmerizing fresco titled "The Month of September: The Triumph of Vulcan and the Sign of Libra" by Italian artist Ercole de Roberti. Located in the enchanting Palazzo Schifanoia in Ferrara, Emilia Romagna, Italy, this masterpiece transports us back to the medieval era. In this scene, we witness the celestial dance between astrology and craftsmanship. Vulcan, the Roman god of fire and forge, stands triumphantly at his anvil amidst a bustling workshop. His muscular figure exudes power as he forges magnificent armor with precision and skill. This portrayal symbolizes not only his mastery over metal but also his dominance over September's fiery energy. Above him floats the sign of Libra – represented by scales held delicately by cherubs or putti – signifying balance and harmony. These celestial beings add an ethereal touch to this vibrant composition while reminding us that autumn is upon us. Ercole de Roberti's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from intricate armor designs to zodiacal symbols adorning walls - each element tells its own story within this grand narrative. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported into a world where mythology intertwines with astrology. It serves as a reminder that art has always been a gateway to understanding our place in both earthly and cosmic realms.
