Abstract
This article, the basis of a lecture given at the International Conference in memory of Nello Forti Grazzini (Academia Belgica, Rome, 25-26 October 2022), offers a synthesis of the latest research on the Fable of Mercury from the Lerma-Medinaceli ducal collection. Nello Forti Grazzini’s collaboration with the exhibition The Loves of Mercury and Herse. A rich tapestry by Willem de Pannemaker, held in 2010 at the Museo Nacional del Prado, made it possible to advance our knowledge of the genesis of the creation of the eight tapestries that make-up this sumptuous tapestry, woven in Brussels by Willem de Pannemaker in 1570.
