Quarrel of the Goddesses and the Judgment of Paris
by BEAUMONT, Claudio Francesco, Fresco
Beaumont’s contribution to the painting of the Palazzo Reale includes, in addition to four living rooms, two galleries, of which the Galleria della Regina, later named after him, is one of the largest (60 m long) and the most magnificent of its kind. Beaumont’s ceilings in the two anterooms of the gallery illustrated events that precede and introduce the legend of Aeneas. The fresco in the Gabinetto Cinese featured the quarrel between the three goddess and the Judgment of Paris. The fresco in the other room (Stanza dei Fiori) is not preserved.
