Photograph of a spandrel that is part of the fresco by Raphael and his workshop in the Loggia of Cupid and Psyche in the Villa Farnesina. It depicts the goddesses Venus, Ceres, and Juno conversing with each other. Ceres and Juno are shown here as clothed, with Ceres wearing a crown of wheat, while Venus is only partially clothed. The scene is framed with elaborate festoons of various plants painted by Giovanni da Udine.
