O triunfo da fama

ca. 1502–4
Not on view
Esta tapeçaria, em excelente estado, é marcante por sua condição, cores e harmonia da composição. Baseada em parte no poema de Petrarca, I Trionfi (Os triunfos), era parte de uma série de seis tapeçarias que representavam os triunfos de Amor, Modéstia, Morte, Fama, Tempo e Eternidade. Aqui, a Fama lê um livro colocado no atril, cercada por escritores cujas obras imortalizaram as proezas dos antigos. Triunfando sobre a Morte, ela pisoteia o Destino, segurando um orbe coroado por uma cruz, dando assim ao tema um contexto claramente cristão. Esta tapeçaria, ou uma idêntica a esta, foi comprada por Isabela, rainha de Castela e Aragão, em 1504.
