On the plaque beneath the fresco, the inscription reads “LAESI NON NECATI ALIMUR,” which can be translated as: “Wounded but not killed, we are nourished.”
This is one of the most famous frescoes in the cycle, and its authorship is a subject of debate between Ludovico and Annibale. Some critics suggest that it might be a work created by both artists, with the group of the twins and the she-wolf attributed to Ludovico, while the expansive and magnificent landscape in the background would be the result of Annibale’s work.
