"Presentation of Jesus in the Temple 2" is a fresco by the Early Renaissance Italian painter Fra Angelico, also known as Guido di Pietro. This artwork is part of a series of frescoes created by the artist for the Convent of San Marco in Florence, Italy, where he lived as a Dominican friar. The fresco, dating from around 1440, depicts the biblical scene of the Presentation of Jesus at the Temple, an event described in the Gospel of Luke (2:22–40), which is celebrated in the Christian liturgical feast of Candlemas.

In this scene, the Holy Family is shown fulfilling the Jewish rite of purification and redemption of the firstborn, as Mary presents the infant Jesus to Simeon, a devout and elderly man who had been promised by the Holy Spirit that he would not die before seeing the Messiah. The fresco captures the moment of Simeon's recognition of Jesus as the Christ, often referred to as the Nunc Dimittis, from the words Simeon speaks in praise of God for fulfilling the promise.

Fra Angelico's work is renowned for its devotional character and the use of delicate colors, which enhance the spiritual and serene atmosphere of the depicted scenes. "Presentation of Jesus in the Temple 2" exemplifies the artist's skill in combining the sacred narrative with the aesthetics of the early Renaissance period, characterized by attention to detail, the use of perspective, and the depiction of human emotion.

The fresco is significant for its artistic and religious importance, as it reflects the theological and artistic trends of the time, as well as the personal piety of Fra Angelico. It remains an important work for the study of Renaissance art and the visual interpretation of biblical themes. As part of the Convent of San Marco's collection, the fresco is preserved in situ, allowing visitors to experience the work in its original monastic context.
