Photo Of The Day: Fantastic Voyage

Today's Photo of the Day is a lovely Renaissance fresco from Rome's Villa Farnesina, taken by Flickr user AlexSven. It's not the most famous artwork from the museum, that of Raphael's "Triumph of Galatea," but it depicts another voyage of the gods. It's what we all hope our travel will be: swift, elegant and a bit magical. The mode of travel, chariot pulled by a pair of oxen, is as old-fashioned as it gets, and a group of hidden angels assure safe passage for the rider. May your next trip be as smooth.

Upload your magical voyages to Gadling's Flickr pool for another Photo of the Day.
