"Conquest of Padua" is a monumental painting by the Venetian artist Palma il Giovane, displayed in the Palazzo Ducale in Venice. The painting depicts a triumphant military victory, possibly the Venetian capture of Padua in 1405. The scene is characterized by a dynamic composition, featuring soldiers on horseback, waving flags, and fleeing enemy soldiers. The dramatic lighting, rich colors, and detailed figures exemplify the grandeur and theatricality of Venetian painting of the late 16th century.
