View of the Room of Sofonisba
by ZELOTTI, Giovanni Battista, Fresco
In the Room of Sofonisba, the scenes framed by Corinthian columns, narrate the tragic final events in the life of Sofonisba, queen of the Numidians. The left wall shows The Weeping Sofonisba Welcoming Massinissa; the central section has Sofonisba Imploring Massinissa; and on the right is Sofonisba Receiving Poison.
