Borghese Gallery Ceiling
This is a photo of one of the ceilings in the Borghese Gallery in Rome. I have not been able to find out anything about it.
From comment by Eric below who just happens to be my brother-in-law. Thank you very much.
Room of the Bacchantes
Room 12
This small room takes its name from the fresco in the centre of the ceiling, which depicts three women dancing within frames of ivy decorated all around by floral motifs, garlands, festoons, and musical instruments that recall the grotesques and stuccos of ancient Roman villas. Felice Giani (1758-1823) executed it between 1782 and 1785 as a reworking of the decorations of the Domus Aurea and Hadrian’s Villa, which he visited regularly. galleriaborghese.beniculturali.it/en/il-museo/la-villa/sa...
