"Time and Truth" is a renowned fresco by the Italian Rococo painter Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, created between 1743 and 1745. Tiepolo, celebrated for his grandiose and luminous compositions, executed this work during his prolific period in Würzburg, Germany, where he was commissioned to decorate the Würzburg Residence, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The fresco is located on the ceiling of the Kaisersaal (Imperial Hall), one of the most opulent rooms in the palace.

The fresco allegorically represents the triumph of Truth over Time, a common theme in Baroque and Rococo art, symbolizing the Enlightenment ideals of reason and knowledge prevailing over ignorance and falsehood. In the composition, Tiepolo masterfully employs his signature use of light and color to create a dynamic and ethereal scene. The central figure of Truth is depicted as a radiant, youthful woman, holding a mirror and a serpent, traditional symbols of truth and wisdom. She is surrounded by allegorical figures, including Time, depicted as an elderly man with wings and an hourglass, and other personifications of virtues and vices.

Tiepolo's use of foreshortening and perspective creates an illusionistic effect, making the ceiling appear as if it opens up to the heavens. This technique, known as quadratura, was highly popular in Baroque ceiling painting and showcases Tiepolo's exceptional skill in creating spatial illusions. The fresco not only exemplifies Tiepolo's artistic prowess but also reflects the cultural and intellectual currents of the 18th century, emphasizing the power of truth and enlightenment.

"Time and Truth" remains a significant work in Tiepolo's oeuvre, demonstrating his ability to blend complex allegorical content with a visually stunning and harmonious composition. It continues to be admired by art historians and visitors alike for its technical brilliance and profound thematic resonance.
