The "Allegory of Good and Bad Government" frescos in the Sala dei Nove, Palazzo Pubblico, Siena include several scenes on the walls of the room. The first is an allegory of Good Government, and a ruler surrounded by virtues needed to rule wisely. The second fresco covers an entire wall and shows the effects of good government on the city and countryside. The third fresco covers an entire wall also, and depicts an allegory of Bad Government (featuring a monstrous tyrant surrounded by vices), a crumbling city, and a barren countryside.
