"Confirmation of the Rule" (detail 1) is a fresco painted by the Italian Renaissance artist Domenico Ghirlandaio between 1482 and 1485. This work is part of a series of frescoes created by Ghirlandaio for the Sassetti Chapel in the church of Santa Trinita, Florence. The series was commissioned by the wealthy Florentine banker Francesco Sassetti, who desired to decorate the chapel with scenes from the life of St. Francis of Assisi, reflecting his own devotion to the saint.

The "Confirmation of the Rule" depicts a significant event in the life of St. Francis: the moment when Pope Honorius III approves the Franciscan Rule, thus officially recognizing the Franciscan Order. This rule outlined the way of life for the followers of St. Francis, emphasizing poverty, humility, and the imitation of Christ's life.

Ghirlandaio's fresco is celebrated for its vivid portrayal of the characters and its detailed representation of contemporary Florentine society. The artist included portraits of notable figures of his time, effectively turning the religious scene into a historical document of the period's social and cultural elite. The fresco is also noted for its architectural elements, which reflect the Renaissance interest in perspective and the use of space to create depth.

As a master of fresco technique, Ghirlandaio employed a combination of precise draftsmanship and a rich color palette to bring the scene to life. His work in the Sassetti Chapel, including the "Confirmation of the Rule," is considered one of his most important contributions to the art of the Quattrocento, the 15th-century period of Italian art. The frescoes are admired for their narrative clarity, compositional sophistication, and the seamless integration of religious themes with contemporary life, all of which are exemplified in the "Confirmation of the Rule" (detail 1).
