The Triumph of Venus[1] (1468-70) is the upper zone from the April Allegory fresco found in the Palazzo Schifanoia, executed by Francesco da Cossa. This detail [2] depicts the Three Graces and this charming detail[3] shows a man having his hand between the skirts of a woman.
The pink rock landscape is similar to that in Flemish fantastic landscape painting such as La Luxure.
