ppictures of Alexander from villa Farnesina

[heroineanilem]

Here are the scanned photos of frescoes from Villa Farnesina in Rome, depicting different points in Alexander's life, made by Sodoma. He was commissioned to paint them for the bedroom of Agostino Chigi in 1519. The most famous one is The marriage of Alexander and Roxane, but there are several other. Since there was no waz to post them here, here
