Hercules as Virtue and Competence being Crowned by Justitia
by BEAUMONT, Claudio Francesco, Fresco
Beaumont’s contribution to the painting of the Palazzo Reale includes four living rooms and two galleries. In the Regio Gabinetto (the king’s workroom) Beaumont illustrated the virtues appropriate to a monarch. Guided by Ethical Wisdom (Sapienza Morale), Hercules, as a personification of virtue and competence, is crowned by Justitia.
