the subject of the title takes place in three scenes in the upper section of the fresco. on the left, jesus, who has been fasting, is tempted by the devil, in the guise of a hermit, to turn stones into bread. in the second scene of temptation, at the upper centre of the picture, the devil has carried jesus to the top of the temple of jerusalem, represented by the facade of the chapel of santa maria in traspontina of the church of santo spirito in sassia in rome. the devil tempts jesus to challenge god's promise that he will be protected by angels, by throwing himself down. in the third temptation, to the upper right, the devil has taken jesus to a high mountain where he shows him the beauties of the earth. the devil promises jesus power over this domain, if he will deny god and bow down to the devil. jesus sends the devil away from him, while angels come to minister to him.
