Triumph of Rome over Sicily

Of all the rooms in the fifteenth-century Palazzo dei Conservatori, this is the only room that has maintained its original proportions. 
The frescoed decoration dating back to the first decade of the XVI century and traditionally attributed to Jacopo Ripanda celebrates episodes of the Punic Wars in four scenes; underneath runs a long frieze with niches containing busts of Roman generals. 
he wooden ceiling, carried out a short time after the frescoed decoration, bears a carved image of the Capitoline She-Wolf at its centre.
