"Saint Cosmas and Saint Damian Condemned" is a fresco created by the Italian Renaissance painter Fra Angelico in 1438. This work is part of a larger series of frescoes that adorn the walls of the Convent of San Marco in Florence, Italy. Fra Angelico, a Dominican friar, was renowned for his devout religious life and his exceptional skill in painting, which earned him the title "Blessed" by the Catholic Church.

The fresco depicts the moment when Saints Cosmas and Damian, early Christian martyrs and twin brothers, are condemned to death by the Roman authorities for their faith. Known for their medical skills and charitable works, the saints are shown standing resolutely before their persecutors, embodying the virtues of faith and courage. The composition is marked by Fra Angelico's characteristic use of delicate lines, soft color palettes, and a serene, almost ethereal quality that conveys the spiritual gravity of the scene.

Fra Angelico's work on the frescoes of San Marco was commissioned by Cosimo de' Medici, a prominent patron of the arts and a key figure in the political and cultural life of Florence. The frescoes were intended not only to decorate the convent but also to serve as didactic tools, inspiring the monks with vivid visual representations of Christian virtues and the lives of the saints.

"Saint Cosmas and Saint Damian Condemned" is notable for its detailed portrayal of the figures' expressions and gestures, which convey a deep sense of piety and resolve. The architectural elements in the background, rendered with precise perspective, reflect the influence of contemporary advancements in the understanding of spatial representation.

This fresco, like many of Fra Angelico's works, exemplifies the harmonious blend of artistic innovation and spiritual devotion that characterizes the early Renaissance period. It remains a significant piece of religious art, offering insight into the theological and cultural milieu of 15th-century Florence.
