"St. Barbara" (c. 1471) is a painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Domenico Ghirlandaio, whose work exemplifies the Florentine artistic tradition of the late 15th century. Ghirlandaio, known for his detailed and narrative frescoes, was also a master of panel painting, of which "St. Barbara" is a fine example. The painting depicts Saint Barbara, a Christian martyr and one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers, who is often invoked against thunder and lightning and is the patroness of artillerymen and miners.

In this work, Ghirlandaio portrays St. Barbara in a serene pose, with her traditional attributes that identify her and tell the story of her martyrdom. She is usually shown with a tower, referencing her imprisonment by her pagan father, and the palm branch, a symbol of martyrdom. The painting is noted for its delicate use of color and the harmonious composition that reflects the influence of Ghirlandaio's teacher, Alesso Baldovinetti, and other contemporary Florentine artists like Verrocchio and Botticelli.

The exact dimensions and current location of the painting, as well as its provenance, are not specified here, but such works are typically held in museums or private collections and are subject to art historical research and conservation efforts. "St. Barbara" would be of interest to scholars studying the iconography of saints, the development of religious painting in the Renaissance, and Ghirlandaio's oeuvre. As with many works of this period, the painting would also be significant for its insights into the devotional practices and the socio-cultural context of the time in which it was created.
