"The Healing of Justinian by Saint Cosmas and Saint Damian" (1438) is a celebrated fresco by the Early Renaissance Italian painter Fra Angelico, also known as Guido di Pietro. This artwork is part of a series of frescoes painted by Fra Angelico in the niches of the San Marco Convent in Florence, Italy, which now serves as a museum. The fresco depicts the miraculous healing of the Roman Emperor Justinian by the twin brothers and saints, Cosmas and Damian. According to Christian tradition, these saints, who were also physicians, are said to have performed a miraculous leg transplantation on the Emperor, replacing his diseased limb with that of a recently deceased Ethiopian man. This subject was a popular theme in art, symbolizing the miraculous intercession of saints in the lives of devout Christians.

Fra Angelico, renowned for his devout spirituality and exquisite attention to detail, renders the scene with a delicate finesse that is characteristic of his work. The fresco is notable for its vivid portrayal of the saints in the act of surgery, a theme that combines religious devotion with an interest in science and medicine, reflecting the Renaissance fascination with the human body and the natural world. The figures are depicted with serene expressions, imbued with a sense of divine calm and grace, typical of Fra Angelico's style. The background, though sparse, hints at a celestial setting, emphasizing the miraculous nature of the event.

"The Healing of Justinian by Saint Cosmas and Saint Damian" is an important work in the oeuvre of Fra Angelico, illustrating not only his artistic skill but also the religious and cultural values of the time. It stands as a testament to the blending of faith, art, and science during the Renaissance, and remains a significant piece for scholars studying the period's religious art. The fresco is admired for its spiritual depth, technical mastery, and the way it encapsulates the essence of Early Renaissance art, making it a valuable piece in the history of Western art.
