"Crucifixion with St Dominic (Cell 17)" is a fresco painting by the renowned Early Italian Renaissance artist Fra Angelico. This work is part of a series of frescoes that Fra Angelico created for the Convent of San Marco in Florence, Italy, during the mid-15th century. The frescoes were commissioned by Cosimo de' Medici, a prominent patron of the arts and a key figure in the political and cultural life of Florence. The series was intended to serve both as a spiritual inspiration and a didactic tool for the Dominican friars residing in the convent.

The fresco in Cell 17 depicts the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ, a central theme in Christian iconography, with St. Dominic, the founder of the Dominican Order, prominently featured at the foot of the cross. St. Dominic is portrayed in a posture of deep reverence and contemplation, embodying the ideals of piety and devotion that the frescoes were meant to inspire in the friars. The composition is marked by its simplicity and clarity, characteristic of Fra Angelico's style, which emphasizes the spiritual over the material.

Fra Angelico's use of color, light, and composition in "Crucifixion with St Dominic" reflects his deep theological understanding and his ability to convey complex religious themes with emotional and visual clarity. The fresco is notable for its serene and contemplative atmosphere, achieved through the harmonious arrangement of figures and the subtle gradations of color. The work exemplifies Fra Angelico's mastery in creating a sense of divine presence and spiritual introspection.

"Crucifixion with St Dominic (Cell 17)" remains an important example of Fra Angelico's contribution to Renaissance art and religious expression.
