    Abstract
    The Sala dei Cento Giorni, created by Giorgio Vasari in 1546 in the Palazzo della Cancelleria in Rome, is one of the most remarkable examples of quadratura perspective—an artistic technique that blends painting and architecture to create an illusory and immersive spatial experience. This volume explores Vasari’s masterpiece through an innovative lens, combining iconographic analysis with digital visualization tools. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, the author examines the compositional strategies, architectural references, and perspective techniques employed by the Aretine master, offering a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of the work. The study first situates the Sala dei Cento Giorni within its historical and cultural context, analyzing the iconographic influences that shaped its design. It then shifts focus to a geometric and perceptual reading of the frescoes, enhanced by experiments with augmented and virtual reality. These technologies, used to investigate spatial dynamics and visitor perception, provide an unprecedented and immersive engagement with the Sala, transforming it into a virtual laboratory where real and illusionistic spaces interact in a continuous dialogue. By integrating cutting-edge digital tools with a rigorous study of perspective, this book offers a new interpretative key that emphasizes the interplay between observer, spectator, and painted architectural space. As a Renaissance masterpiece featuring intricate and still partially unexplored quadratura techniques, the Sala dei Cento Giorni emerges as a stimulating field for experimentation, unlocking new possibilities for the future of artistic and architectural representation.
