"Scene showing that those born under the sign of Scorpio in conjunction with the constellation of the Centaur will be adept at horse-driving, symbolised by a chariot driver" is a fresco by the Italian artist Giulio Romano, also known as Orbetto. Created in 1528, this work is part of the decorative scheme in the Camera dei Venti (Room of the Winds) in the Palazzo del Te in Mantua, Italy. The fresco embodies the astrological beliefs of the period, linking the zodiac sign of Scorpio with the mythological creature, the Centaur, to suggest that individuals born under this celestial configuration would possess exceptional skills in horse-driving, as represented by the figure of a chariot driver.

Giulio Romano, a prominent pupil of Raphael, was known for his innovative approach to art and architecture. In this fresco, he masterfully combines astrological symbolism with the dynamism of the High Renaissance style. The artwork serves as a visual representation of the horoscope, a concept that was highly regarded by the patrons of the time, including Federico II Gonzaga, the Duke of Mantua, for whom the Palazzo del Te was constructed.

The fresco is significant for its artistic merit and as an example of the cultural context of the Italian Renaissance, where astrology, mythology, and humanism intertwined. The depiction of the chariot driver in the fresco is a testament to Giulio Romano's ability to translate complex iconographic themes into compelling visual narratives. This work remains an important piece within the broader narrative of Renaissance art and its relationship with the intellectual currents of the era.
