Allegorical Figure Representing Geometry 1760 Giovanni Battista Tiepolo Italian Like the other frescoes in this gallery, this allegorical figure of Geometry, identified by the inscription on the base of the feigned statue, is from the Palazzo Valle Marchesini Sala in Vicenza. The simulated architecture, foreshortened from a viewing point in the center of the room, was carried out by a specialist in this type of work, Girolamo Mengozzi Colonna, who collaborated with Tiepolo on a number of commissions. The frescoes were probably commissioned by Count Giorgio Marchesini, and their iconography may reflect his particular interest in Freemasonry. They were detached from the palace about 1900. A change is visible in the left arm, which was originally upright, holding a pair of dividers.. Allegorical Figure Representing Geometry.
