"The Noble Banquet Celebrating the Marriage of Cupid and Psyche" is a detail from a fresco painted by the Italian artist Giulio Romano, also known as Orbetto, in 1528. This artwork is part of a larger series of frescoes located in the Sala di Amore e Psiche (Hall of Cupid and Psyche) within the Palazzo del Te in Mantua, Italy. The frescoes were commissioned by Federico II Gonzaga, the Duke of Mantua, and are considered masterpieces of the High Renaissance and Mannerist art.

The specific detail in question features the head of Apollo, the god of music, poetry, and the arts, set against a procession of exotic animals, which is part of the grand celebration of the mythical marriage between Cupid, the god of desire, and Psyche, the personification of the human soul. The scene is rich in allegorical meaning and reflects the Renaissance interest in classical mythology and its application to contemporary themes of love and marriage.

Giulio Romano, a prominent pupil of Raphael, was known for his innovative approach to composition and his ability to infuse his works with dramatic intensity and emotional depth. In this fresco, Romano showcases his skill in creating dynamic figures and a sense of movement, as well as his adept use of color and light to enhance the narrative. The inclusion of Apollo, surrounded by a menagerie of animals, not only adds to the festive atmosphere but also symbolizes the harmony of the natural world under the divine influence of the arts.

The Sala di Amore e Psiche stands as a testament to Romano's artistic legacy and his contribution to the spread of Roman and Renaissance culture in Northern Italy. The frescoes have been studied extensively for their iconography, style, and cultural significance, making them an important subject for art historians and enthusiasts of Renaissance art.
