Saint Christopher and the Infant Christ
Domenico Ghirlandaio, c. 1448
Fresco

[I think this is one of the most fun frescoes I have looked at. It’s just…fun!] 

Marriage of Alexander and Roxana
Sodoma, 1517
Fresco 

“In his Marriage of Alexander and Roxana, the relaxed bride sits on the edge of a gorgeous bed with posts of gilded Corinthian columns, while three putti disrobe her. Another tugs Alexander in her direction, serving maids depart, and on the right the almost nude god of marriage, accompanied by a torchbearer, presides over the occasion. Luxurious in its surfaces and overripe in its coloring, this frankly voluptuous fresco is the opposite of the moralized mythologies of Botticelli.”
