"The Nine Worthies and the Nine Worthy Women" is a fresco series painted by the Italian artist Giacomo Jaquerio around the early 15th century. The frescoes are located in the Castello della Manta, near Saluzzo in Piedmont, Italy. Jaquerio, known for his work in the International Gothic style, was one of the most prominent painters in the courtly circles of the Piedmont region during his time.

The Nine Worthies were a group of nine historical, scriptural, and legendary figures who were considered paragons of chivalry during the Middle Ages. They were divided into three categories: Pagans (Hector, Alexander the Great, and Julius Caesar), Jews (Joshua, David, and Judas Maccabeus), and Christians (King Arthur, Charlemagne, and Godfrey of Bouillon). These figures were celebrated for their virtues and military prowess and often featured in medieval literature and art.

In addition to the Nine Worthies, Jaquerio's fresco series also includes the Nine Worthy Women, a less standardized group that mirrored the male Worthies. These women were chosen from history and legend for their exemplary conduct and included figures such as the biblical Esther and Judith, as well as historical figures like Lucretia of Rome.

Jaquerio's frescoes are notable for their vivid portrayal of these historical and legendary figures, capturing the ideals of chivalry and virtue that were celebrated in the courtly culture of the time. The frescoes are considered significant works of the International Gothic style in Northern Italy, showcasing Jaquerio's skill in combining vibrant color, intricate detail, and a sense of narrative drama.

The "Nine Worthies and the Nine Worthy Women" frescoes are an important part of the cultural heritage of the Piedmont region and are a testament to the artistic achievements of the late medieval period in Italy. They continue to attract scholarly attention and remain a point of interest for visitors to the Castello della Manta.
