"Francis I (1494-1547) and Alessandro Farnese (1546-92) Entering Paris in 1540" is a fresco by the Italian Mannerist painter Taddeo Zuccaro. It is part of a series of frescoes created between 1557 and 1566 for the Sala dei Fasti Farnese (Hall of the Splendors of the Farnese) in the Palazzo Farnese, Rome. The series of frescoes was commissioned by Cardinal Alessandro Farnese the Younger to celebrate the illustrious deeds of his family, particularly focusing on the life and accomplishments of his grandfather, Pope Paul III (formerly Alessandro Farnese).

The fresco depicts the grand entry of King Francis I of France into Paris in 1540, a historical event that celebrated the king's power and magnificence. Alessandro Farnese, then a cardinal, is also featured in the scene, symbolizing the close political and cultural ties between the Farnese family and the French court. The work is a prime example of the Mannerist style, characterized by its complex composition, elongated figures, and vibrant colors.

Taddeo Zuccaro, born in 1529 in Sant'Angelo in Vado, Marche, was one of the most prominent painters of his time. He was known for his fresco cycles and was particularly influential in the Roman art scene of the mid-16th century. His work in the Sala dei Fasti Farnese stands as a testament to his skill in narrative fresco painting and his ability to weave historical and allegorical themes into grand visual spectacles.

The frescoes in the Sala dei Fasti Farnese are considered some of Zuccaro's finest works and contribute significantly to the understanding of the cultural and political aspirations of the Farnese family during the Renaissance. They remain an important part of the artistic heritage of the Palazzo Farnese, which is now the French Embassy in Rome. The frescoes are not only a celebration of the Farnese family's past but also a reflection of the power and influence they wielded in 16th-century Italian and European affairs.
