"Allegory of April: Triumph of Venus" is a renowned fresco by the Italian early Renaissance artist Francesco del Cossa. Created around 1470, this artwork forms part of a series of frescoes that adorned the Palazzo Schifanoia in Ferrara, Italy, under the commission of Borso d'Este, the Duke of Ferrara. The frescoes are collectively known as the "Salone dei Mesi" (Hall of the Months), with each section representing one month of the year and the associated astrological sign, activities of the nobility and peasantry, and mythological scenes.

"Allegory of April: Triumph of Venus" specifically corresponds to the month of April and is a celebration of springtime, love, and fertility, themes commonly associated with the goddess Venus. In the fresco, Venus is depicted riding a triumphal car, symbolizing her dominion over the season. The work is notable for its intricate detail, vibrant color palette, and the harmonious blend of human figures with allegorical and mythological elements.

Del Cossa's fresco stands out for its artistic innovation and the way it reflects the humanist interests of the Renaissance period. The allegorical representation of the months was a novel concept, and the inclusion of zodiacal signs alongside classical deities demonstrated the era's fascination with astrology and mythology. The "Allegory of April: Triumph of Venus" is particularly admired for its graceful figures, elaborate costumes, and the use of perspective, which was a relatively new technique at the time.

The Palazzo Schifanoia frescoes, including "Allegory of April: Triumph of Venus," are considered masterpieces of the Ferrarese school of painting and are significant for their contribution to the understanding of Renaissance art and culture. Despite the damage and wear over the centuries, the frescoes have been the subject of restoration efforts, allowing contemporary audiences to appreciate del Cossa's work and its historical context.
