"Henri II entering the Temple of Immortality (or Ignorance Defeated)" is a notable work by the Italian Mannerist painter Fiorentino Rosso, also known as Rosso Fiorentino. This painting is a significant example of the Mannerist style, which emerged in the late Renaissance period and is characterized by its artificiality, elongated forms, and complex compositions. Rosso Fiorentino, born Giovanni Battista di Jacopo in 1494, was a prominent figure in this movement, known for his innovative and often unconventional approach to traditional subjects.

The painting depicts the French King Henri II being welcomed into the allegorical Temple of Immortality, symbolizing his triumph over ignorance and his ascent to eternal glory. This theme reflects the Renaissance humanist ideals of the time, celebrating the pursuit of knowledge and the intellectual achievements of the individual. The composition is rich with symbolic elements, including classical architecture, mythological figures, and personifications of virtues and vices, all meticulously rendered in Rosso's distinctive style.

Rosso Fiorentino's use of vibrant colors, dynamic poses, and dramatic contrasts of light and shadow creates a sense of movement and emotional intensity, drawing the viewer into the narrative. The painting not only serves as a tribute to Henri II but also as a testament to the artist's mastery of the Mannerist aesthetic. It exemplifies the period's fascination with complexity, both in form and meaning, and highlights Rosso's ability to convey profound themes through his art.

"Henri II entering the Temple of Immortality (or Ignorance Defeated)" remains an important work in the study of Mannerism and Renaissance art, offering insights into the cultural and intellectual currents of the 16th century. It stands as a testament to Rosso Fiorentino's enduring legacy and his contribution to the evolution of European art.
