"Landing of the Trojans at the Mouth of Tiberis" is a grandiose fresco created by the Italian Baroque painter Pietro da Cortona, also known as Pietro Berrettini, between 1651 and 1654. This work is a significant example of Cortona's mastery in the Baroque style, characterized by dynamic compositions, dramatic use of light and shadow, and an intricate interplay of figures and architectural elements.

The fresco depicts a pivotal moment from Roman mythology, illustrating the arrival of the Trojan hero Aeneas and his followers at the mouth of the Tiber River, an event that is foundational to the mythological origins of Rome. This scene is derived from Virgil's epic poem, the "Aeneid," which narrates the journey of Aeneas after the fall of Troy and his eventual role in the founding of Rome.

Cortona's composition is teeming with movement and energy, capturing the tension and anticipation of the Trojans as they disembark from their ships. The artist employs a rich palette and meticulous attention to detail, bringing to life the varied expressions and gestures of the figures, as well as the lush landscape and turbulent waters of the Tiber. The fresco is notable for its use of perspective and foreshortening, techniques that enhance the sense of depth and realism.

This work is part of a larger decorative scheme commissioned for a prominent Roman palace, reflecting the Baroque era's penchant for grand, immersive environments that blend painting, sculpture, and architecture. Cortona's ability to integrate these elements seamlessly showcases his versatility and innovation as an artist.

"Landing of the Trojans at the Mouth of Tiberis" stands as a testament to Pietro da Cortona's skill and his contribution to the development of Baroque art in Italy. The fresco not only exemplifies the dramatic and emotive qualities of the period but also serves as a visual celebration of Rome's legendary past, immortalizing a key moment in its mythological history.
