"Women Gathering Grapes, Ceiling Caisson from the Sala di Amore e Psiche, 1528" is a notable work by the Italian painter and architect Giulio Romano, also known as Orbetto. This fresco is part of the decorative scheme of the Sala di Amore e Psiche (Hall of Cupid and Psyche) located in the Palazzo del Te in Mantua, Italy. The Palazzo del Te was built and decorated between 1524 and 1534 for Federico II Gonzaga, the Marquis of Mantua, and is considered one of the masterpieces of the Italian Renaissance.

The ceiling caisson, or compartment, features an elegant depiction of women engaged in the pastoral activity of harvesting grapes, a theme that resonates with the classical and mythological motifs prevalent throughout the room. The fresco is characterized by its vibrant colors, dynamic composition, and the graceful movement of the figures, which exemplify Giulio Romano's mastery of the High Renaissance style and his innovative approach to illusionistic ceiling painting.

Giulio Romano, a prominent pupil of Raphael, was known for his versatility and for pushing the boundaries of Mannerist art. His work in the Sala di Amore e Psiche is particularly significant as it represents a fusion of architectural design, painting, and stucco work, creating an immersive environment that was influential in the development of later decorative schemes in the 16th century.

The "Women Gathering Grapes" fresco not only serves as an artistic embellishment but also contributes to the thematic narrative of the room, which is dedicated to the love story of Cupid and Psyche as told by Apuleius in "The Golden Ass." The imagery of grape harvesting is often associated with fertility and abundance, which complements the overarching theme of love and desire within the mythological context of the room's decoration.

Today, the Sala di Amore e Psiche, along with Giulio Romano's "Women Gathering Grapes," remains a significant cultural and historical site, attracting scholars and visitors interested in the Renaissance era and the works of this influential artist.
