Villa Farnesina-LA LOGGIA DI PSICHE Nella loggia, un tempo aperta sul giardino, è dipinto il ciclo con le Storie di Amore e Psiche, tratte dall'Asino d'oro di Apuleio, opera di Raffaello e dei suoi allievi (Raffaellino del Colle, Giovan Francesco Penni, Giulio Romano) per il banchiere Agostino Chigi. Alcuni hanno messo in relazione la protagonista mitologica del soggetto, Psiche, con Francesca Ordeaschi, amante di Agostino Chigi, che da cortigiana si elevò al rango di moglie legittima del banchiere. Le scene sono inserite in un intreccio di festoni vegetali, opera dell'altro allievo Giovanni da Udine, che simulano un pergolato con festoni di fiori e frutta, dividenti la volta in scomparti, che hanno uno sfondo azzurro-cielo. La presenza degli intrecci vegetali accresce il senso di continuum della loggia con il giardino; vi sono riconoscibili la bellezza di circa duecento specie botaniche, soprattutto domestiche, tra cui anche numerose piante importate dalle Americhe, scoperte solo pochi anni prima. Il ciclo si divide in due grandi storie centrali che simulano arazzi tesi (Concilio degli dei e Convito nuziale), dieci pennacchi in corrispondenza dei pilastri e quattordici vele sopra gli archi.
