"Discovery of the True Cross (detail 1)" is a notable fresco created by the Italian painter Agnolo Gaddi in the 1380s. Agnolo Gaddi, a prominent figure of the late Gothic period, was the son of Taddeo Gaddi and the grandson of Gaddo Gaddi, both of whom were distinguished artists in their own right. This particular fresco is part of a larger cycle that decorates the walls of the Cappella Maggiore (Choir Chapel) in the Basilica di Santa Croce in Florence, Italy. The cycle narrates the Legend of the True Cross, a story derived from the Golden Legend by Jacobus de Voragine, which recounts the history of the wood of the cross on which Jesus Christ was crucified.

The "Discovery of the True Cross" frescoes are celebrated for their intricate detail, vibrant colors, and the skillful use of perspective, which was innovative for its time. Gaddi's work is characterized by its narrative clarity and the ability to convey complex theological themes through visual storytelling. In "Discovery of the True Cross (detail 1)," Gaddi captures a pivotal moment in the legend where the True Cross is unearthed. The scene is populated with figures that display a range of emotions, from awe to reverence, reflecting the significance of the discovery.

Gaddi's frescoes in Santa Croce are considered some of his most important works and are exemplary of the transition from the medieval to the early Renaissance style in Italian art. His use of color, composition, and attention to detail not only enhances the narrative but also provides insight into the artistic and cultural milieu of 14th-century Florence. The frescoes have been the subject of extensive art historical research and continue to be admired for their artistic and historical significance.
