EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning fresco, titled "The Month of April" by the Italian Quattrocento artist Francesco del Cossa (1435-1478), is a captivating masterpiece that once adorned the Schifanoia Palace in Ferrara, Italy. Commissioned by Borso d'Este, Duke of Ferrara, the artwork is a testament to the artistic flourishing of the Ferrarese Renaissance. Located in the Duke's private hall, this vertical composition depicts the month of April, with the figure of the month personified as a jester, holding a bouquet of flowers and a lute. The jester, a common motif in the art of the period, represents the joy and merriment associated with the month of spring. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the fresco are a feast for the eyes. The artist's skillful use of perspective and shading adds depth and dimension to the image, making it seem as if the jester is leaping out of the wall. The rich, earthy tones of the background and the vibrant hues of the jester's costume create a striking contrast, drawing the viewer's attention to the central figure. The Schifanoia Palace, built in the 15th century, was a symbol of the Este family's power and wealth. The palace was adorned with a series of frescoes depicting the months, each one commissioned from a different artist. The Month of April by Francesco del Cossa is considered one of the finest examples of the artist's work and a significant contribution to the Quattrocento art movement in Italy. This photograph, taken in an upright position, provides a glimpse into the beauty and grandeur of the past. The image captures the essence of the artwork, allowing us to appreciate the intricacies of the painting and the artistic vision of Francesco del Cossa. The Month of April is not only a work of art but also a window into the world of the Italian Renaissance.
