"Christ Enthroned between the Virgin and St John the Evangelist" is a significant work by the Italian painter Cenni di Pepo, more widely known as Cimabue, a pivotal figure in the transition from the Byzantine style to the Renaissance. This painting, dating from the late 13th century, exemplifies the early stages of this transition, showcasing both the Byzantine influence in its iconography and the emerging traits of the Renaissance in its attempt to capture a more naturalistic representation of figures and space.

The artwork is a tempera and gold leaf on panel, a common medium of the time, which allowed for the luminous and ethereal quality characteristic of Cimabue's works. The composition centers on Christ, depicted in a majestic pose, seated on a throne, symbolizing his divine authority and kingship. He is flanked by the Virgin Mary and St. John the Evangelist, both of whom are shown in a traditional manner yet exhibit a softening in the treatment of their faces and drapery, hinting at the nascent shift towards realism and the exploration of depth and volume that would come to define the Renaissance.

"Christ Enthroned between the Virgin and St John the Evangelist" is notable for its size and the sophistication of its execution. The figures are arranged in a hierarchical order that emphasizes the central figure of Christ, yet there is an intimacy in the interaction of the gazes and gestures among the figures that suggests a new interest in the depiction of human emotion and divine interrelation.

This painting is considered one of Cimabue's masterpieces, reflecting both his mastery of the Byzantine tradition and his innovative strides towards the Renaissance. It is a key work for understanding the evolution of Western art, marking a moment of transition that encapsulates the complexities and nuances of this pivotal period in art history. The painting is not only a testament to Cimabue's individual genius but also a reflection of the broader cultural and artistic shifts of late medieval Italy.
