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 Venus as a partially nude female figure. She is standing in a chariot drawn by two doves. The scene is framed with elaborate festoons of various plants painted by Giovanni da Udine.
