"Sposalizio Mistico di Santa Caterina d'Alessandria" (The Mystical Marriage of Saint Catherine of Alexandria) is a Baroque-era painting by the Italian artist Benedetto Gennari II (1633–1715). Gennari, a native of Cento in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy, was a prominent painter of the Bolognese School and a nephew and pupil of the renowned artist Guercino. The painting depicts the mystical marriage of Saint Catherine, a popular theme in Christian art, which symbolizes the saint's spiritual betrothal to Christ.

In the painting, Saint Catherine is typically shown receiving a wedding ring from the infant Jesus, indicating her union with him in a mystical marriage. This event is said to have occurred following her vision of the Madonna and Child, and it signifies her commitment to a life of virginity and spiritual devotion. The iconography often includes Saint Catherine dressed in regal attire, with a martyr's palm and the broken wheel of her torture present, referencing her martyrdom.

Gennari's interpretation of this subject would likely reflect his mastery of color and composition, traits he inherited from his uncle Guercino. His works are characterized by their dynamic figures, expressive faces, and the use of light to create depth and drama. While the exact details of "Sposalizio Mistico di Santa Caterina d'Alessandria" such as its dimensions, current location, and historical provenance may not be readily available, the painting would be an example of Gennari's contribution to religious art and his ability to convey complex theological themes through his artistry.
