4634 Gaetano Vascellini (1745–1805), after Domenico Beccafumi – The Reconciliation of Marcus Aemilius Lepidus / La riconciliazione di M. Lepido e Fulvio Flacco – Copperplate Engraving (Late 18th Century)
This copperplate engraving reproduces the dramatic moment of reconciliation between the Roman consuls Marcus Aemilius Lepidus and Marcus Fulvius Flaccus, based on the original fresco by Domenico Beccafumi (c. 1530s) in Siena’s Palazzo Pubblico. The composition centers on the two statesmen embracing, surrounded by Roman citizens and architectural elements that evoke civic grandeur. The scene symbolizes political unity and the restoration of order in the Roman Republic, a theme resonant with Renaissance ideals of virtue and governance.
Domenico Beccafumi (1484–1551) was a leading Sienese painter of the Italian Renaissance, celebrated for his dynamic compositions and expressive figures. His frescoes in the Sala del Concistoro are among his most important civic commissions, blending classical themes with local political allegory.
