"The Parnassus" is a renowned fresco painted by the Italian High Renaissance artist Raphael between 1509 and 1511. It is located in the Stanza della Segnatura at the Vatican in Rome, which was the first of the rooms to be decorated by Raphael and his workshop, and was originally intended as a private library and office for Pope Julius II. This fresco is part of a larger decorative scheme that includes other famous works such as "The School of Athens" and "The Disputation of the Holy Sacrament."

"The Parnassus" itself represents Mount Parnassus, the mythological home of the Muses, and depicts Apollo, the god of music and poetry, at the center playing a viola surrounded by the Muses and renowned poets from antiquity to Raphael's contemporary time. The scene is an embodiment of Renaissance ideals of the classical harmony between arts and letters. Among the illustrious figures, Homer, Dante, and Virgil are prominently featured, symbolizing a continuum of poetic inspiration and cultural authority.

This fresco is celebrated for its vivid portrayal of these figures and its detailed, harmonious composition that combines both humanistic and divine elements. Raphael's use of vibrant colors and his ability to convey emotion through expression and gesture have been particularly noted. "The Parnassus" remains a significant artistic achievement, reflecting the intellectual and artistic aspirations of the High Renaissance in Rome.
