Allegory of Fertility and Abundance
Allegory of Fertility and Abundance is a c.1500 allegorical tempera on panel painting by Luca Signorelli, now in the Uffizi in Florence. Produced around the same time as the artist's frescoes in the San Brizio Chapel in Orvieto, the work was a monochrome allegory inspired by classical bas-reliefs and intended for a humanist scholar's studiolo. Its figures refer to the artist's nudes in his frescoes at Orvieto and Madonna and Child with Ignudi[1].
