View of the Hall of Olympus

In the Hall of Olympus, Zelotti transformed the space into an evocative ruin of an ancient pagan temple. Fragment of classical statues, broken-off columns and cracks sprouting shrubbery are painted on the walls with a skilful use of chiaroscuro. On three sides of the room, high up in the patch of sky that illuminates the scene, mighty gods sit above the clouds.
