This image depicts a detailed upward view within the Stanza di Eliodoro (Heliodorus Room) of the Vatican Museums, located in Città del Vaticano, Vatican City. The vaulted ceiling is adorned with elaborate fresco paintings and decorative architectural elements. A prominent central ceiling fresco, "Jacob's Ladder," shows a figure in green and red drapery sleeping at the bottom, while a ladder extends upwards into a blue sky, populated by numerous winged angels ascending and descending on clouds. A divine figure in golden light is visible at the top of this scene. To the left, another ceiling fresco panel depicts multiple figures, including a woman in blue and yellow drapery. These large fresco panels are separated by richly ornamented bands featuring intricate blue and gold scrollwork, circular medallions with gold accents, and smaller rectangular panels containing grisailles-style depictions of multiple figures in various relief-like scenes. On the upper left wall, a large fresco, identified as "The Expulsion of Heliodorus from the Temple," portrays a dynamic battle scene. Numerous figures, including armored soldiers on horseback and foot soldiers, are engaged in combat with weapons such as spears and bows. A partially nude male figure in orange drapery is prominently featured on a white and brown horse in the foreground. On the upper right wall, a section of another large fresco is visible, showing armored figures. This fresco is partially obscured by a dark, gridded structure, likely a window or protective barrier, which reflects a person wearing glasses. The environment is characterized by elaborate Renaissance artistry, rich colors, and complex figural compositions.
