It is a formal pendant to Pontormo's work, he took over the horizontal articulation, the number of figures, even the colours of their garments. The theme of the lunette is Hercules and Fortuna beneath the Tree of the Hesperides. This detail of the lunette fresco shows Fortuna as Victrix with the Insignia of the Tuscan Grand Dukes Triumphs over Envy and Fury. ## Related artworks - [Allegory of Human Life]() - [Allegory of the Christian Church]() - [Annunciation]() - [Fresco decoration \(detail\)]() - [Fresco decoration \(detail\)]() - [Most Holy Trinity]() - [Pearl Fishers]() - [Plan for the decoration]() - [Portrait of a Noble Woman]() - [Portrait of a Woman]() - [Portrait of a Young Man]() - [Portrait of Bianca Cappello, Second Wife of Francesco I de' Medici]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
