Astrological Astrology Cancer Chariot Crab Luna Personification Tondo
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Moon" fresco, created by the renowned Italian artist Pietro Perugino between 1496 and 1500. Housed in the Sala dell Udienza of the Collegio del Cambio in Perugia, Italy, this masterpiece depicts a personification of the moon. Intriguingly seated on a chariot, this ethereal female figure embodies Luna herself. The artist skillfully captures her serene presence as she gazes down upon us from above. Her nude form exudes grace and tranquility while symbolizing purity and celestial beauty. Astrology enthusiasts will appreciate the astrological elements incorporated into this artwork. The crab representing Cancer can be seen adorning Luna's chariot, emphasizing its connection to lunar cycles and emotions. Displayed within a tondo format—a circular frame—this composition adds an additional layer of harmony to its overall design. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate viewers today as it did centuries ago when it was first painted. As we gaze at this remarkable image captured by Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of Perugino's exceptional talent for capturing both physical beauty and symbolic meaning in his works. This photograph allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of "The Moon" inviting us into a world where artistry meets astrology and mythology intertwines with human imagination
