The Swan Attacked by Dogs

The wall decoration in the Room of Astrea is a continuum that covers the entire wall surface of the space, with the four different times of day depicted at the cardinal points. The north wall depicts Sleeping Eros with a Putto and Doves in a Starry Landscape; the east wall, a Landscape with a Stone Bridge and Isolated Cottage by the Light of Dawn; the south wall, a broad daylight scene with The Swan Attacked by Dogs; and the west wall, a Landscape with a Small Village and Fleeing Wolves at Sunset.
