Antoniazzo Romano, a prominent Italian painter active in the late 15th and early 16th centuries, is known for his fresco cycle in the Cappella Santa Anna, depicting scenes from the life of David and Solomon. This panel features a central coat of arms flanked by two figures, David on the left and Solomon on the right, both seated on thrones and holding scrolls inscribed with Latin texts. The inscription on the left panel is likely a reference to David's wisdom while the right refers to Solomon's wisdom. This work is a testament to Romano’s skill in depicting figures, landscapes, and architectural elements within the confines of a fresco cycle.
