View of the window wall

Probably representing the havoc wrought by the Arc of the Lord when carried off by the Philistines, the frescoes simulate wall paintings of different proportions and deliberately do not harmonize with the shapes of the windows. All are enclosed in fantastic painted frames, all different, intertwined with a jumble of garlands and sculptured figures.

Nothing more contrary to the principles of Renaissance harmony could be imagined, yet all is done with exquisitely refined colours and draftsmanly skill.
