Image description

Ferrara, the Castello Estense (the Estense Castle), also known as Castle of St. Michael: view of the ceiling of the Aurora hall: at the centre "Time (Cronus)", aroundframes with Dawn, Day, Sunset and Night. Work by Bastianino and Ludovico Settevecchi. The cornices which are decorated with putti are by Leonardo da Brescia. The Chamber, former Ercole II's private room, was known in 1600 as the mirror chamber. It gives the name to the whole representation apartment that Alfonso II wanted. The vault scenes are thought to be the allegory of human life. Ferrara, Castello Estense (detto anche Castello di San Michele): veduta del soffitto della sala dell'Aurora: al centro "Il Tempo (Crono)", intorno i riquadri con Alba, Giorno, Tramonto e Notte. Opera di Bastianino e Ludovico Settevecchi. I cornicioni decorati con putti sono opera di Leonardo da Brescia. La sala, gia   stanza privata di Ercole II, era conosciuta nel Cinquecento come camera dello specchio. Da essa prende il nome l'intero appartamento di rappresentanza voluto da Alfonso II. Le scene proposte nella volta di questa sala vengono oggi generalmente interpretate come un'allegoria della vita umana.
