St John by Bicci di Lorenzo is a notable example of early Renaissance art, reflecting the stylistic transitions and religious fervor of the period. Bicci di Lorenzo, an Italian painter born in 1373 and active until his death in 1452, was a prominent figure in the Florentine art scene. He was the son of the painter Lorenzo di Bicci and continued the family tradition, contributing significantly to the development of Florentine painting in the 15th century.

The painting, St John, is a depiction of St John the Evangelist, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus and the presumed author of the Fourth Gospel, the Book of Revelation, and three Epistles in the New Testament. Bicci di Lorenzo's portrayal of St John is characterized by a serene and contemplative expression, capturing the saint's spiritual depth and intellectual vigor. The use of tempera on panel, a common medium of the time, showcases Bicci di Lorenzo's skill in handling color and detail, with particular attention to the saint's facial features and the intricate folds of his garments.

St John is often depicted holding a book or a quill, symbolizing his contributions to the New Testament, and an eagle, representing his visionary nature. Bicci di Lorenzo's interpretation adheres to these iconographic traditions, while also infusing the figure with a sense of individuality and presence. The background of the painting, though simple, serves to highlight the saint, drawing the viewer's focus to his expressive face and the symbolic attributes he holds.

This work is a testament to Bicci di Lorenzo's ability to blend the Gothic style's decorative elements with the emerging naturalism of the Renaissance. His attention to detail and the delicate rendering of textures reflect the influence of his contemporaries and the evolving artistic trends of his time. St John by Bicci di Lorenzo remains an important piece for understanding the transition in Florentine art from the medieval to the early Renaissance period.
