"Grand Duke Cosimo De'Medici Reviving the City of Volterra" is a fresco by the Italian artist, architect, and historian Giorgio Vasari. Created in the mid-16th century, this work is part of a series of frescoes that adorn the walls of the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, Italy, specifically in the private quarters of Cosimo I de' Medici, known as the Quartiere dei Elementi.

The fresco depicts a significant event in the history of Tuscany, where Grand Duke Cosimo I de' Medici is portrayed as a benevolent ruler bringing prosperity back to the city of Volterra. Volterra had been a site of rebellion against Medici rule, and the fresco serves as a visual representation of the Grand Duke's power and magnanimity in quelling the unrest and restoring the city to its former glory.

Vasari, a close confidant of Cosimo I and a central figure in the development of the Mannerist style, was commissioned to execute a number of works that glorified the Medici dynasty. His paintings often served as political propaganda, emphasizing the legitimacy and benevolence of Medici governance. "Grand Duke Cosimo De'Medici Reviving the City of Volterra" is no exception, showcasing Vasari's skill in composition and his ability to convey political messages through art.

The fresco is notable for its vivid portrayal of the characters, the detailed architectural elements, and the use of perspective. It is an exemplary piece of Mannerist art, characterized by elongated figures, artificial colors, and a departure from the harmonious proportions and spatial logic of the High Renaissance.

As with many of Vasari's works, this fresco is not only a piece of art but also a historical document, providing insight into the political climate of 16th-century Florence and the role of art in shaping the image of its rulers. The fresco remains an important cultural artifact, reflecting the intertwined nature of art and politics during the Italian Renaissance.
