"Meeting of Augustus and the Sibyl" is a fresco painting crafted by Italian Renaissance artist Domenicoirlandaio. Created circa 1485, the artwork is part of Ghirlandaio's extensive repertoire and is installed in the Santa Trinita church in Florence, Italy.

The artwork presents a vivid depiction of the legendary encounter between Emperor Augustus and the Tiburtine Sibyl. This encounter, a popular theme in Christian art, is enriched by Ghirlandaio’s exquisite use of color and emphasis on perspective.

In the fresco, Augustus is portrayed as meeting the Sibyl, a prophetic figure who reveals to him a vision of the Virgin Mary and the Christ child. Ghirlandaio presents Augustus in a pose denoting surprise, while the Sibyl, exhibiting a serene countenance, points towards the vision as presented in the sky. Featuring prominent architectural elements in the backdrop, the composition encompasses figures of courtiers and soldiers, adding to the narrative depth of the portrayal.

The fresco is renowned for Ghirlandaio's adept fusion of religious subjects with the stylistic realism typical of the Quattrocento period. The artwork provides insight into not only Ghirlandaio's artistry but also the cultural milieu of 15th-century Florence, with its emphasis on religious symbolism and architectural classicism.

Ghirlandaio's "Meeting of Augustus and the Sibyl" serves as both a testament to the artist's mastery over fresco painting and a significant contribution to the cultural canon of the Italian Renaissance.
