"Allegory of May - Triumph of Apollo (detail)" is a notable fresco created by the Italian Renaissance painter Francesco del Cossa between 1476 and 1484. This work is part of a larger series of frescoes known as the "Cycle of the Months," which adorns the Palazzo Schifanoia in Ferrara, Italy. The series was commissioned by Borso d'Este, the Duke of Ferrara, to celebrate the months of the year through a blend of astrological, mythological, and agricultural themes.

The "Allegory of May" specifically highlights the triumph of Apollo, the Greek god of the sun, music, and poetry, symbolizing the rejuvenation and flourishing of nature during the spring month of May. In this detail, Apollo is often depicted in a chariot, drawn by a team of horses, traversing the sky, which signifies his role as the bringer of light and life. Surrounding Apollo are various allegorical figures and symbols that represent the attributes and activities associated with May, such as the blooming of flowers, the return of greenery, and the vibrancy of life.

Francesco del Cossa's work is characterized by its intricate detail, vibrant colors, and the harmonious blending of classical mythology with contemporary Renaissance humanism. The frescoes in the Palazzo Schifanoia are celebrated for their rich iconography and the sophisticated use of perspective and spatial composition, which were innovative for their time.

The "Cycle of the Months" frescoes, including the "Allegory of May - Triumph of Apollo," are considered masterpieces of Renaissance art and provide valuable insight into the cultural and intellectual milieu of 15th-century Ferrara. Del Cossa's contribution to this series underscores his skill and creativity, cementing his reputation as a significant figure in the Italian Renaissance.
