This 1743 fresco by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, known as "Prudence, Sincerity, and Temperance", showcases Tiepolo's characteristic style of dramatic lighting and dynamic figures. The artwork depicts the three virtues as allegorical figures: Prudence, with a mirror and a snake, Sincerity with a dove, and Temperance depicted with a bridle. The use of flowing drapery and vibrant colors further enhances the sense of movement and energy in the composition, typical of the Rococo period.
