"Saint Margaret of Cortona" is an 18th-century oil painting by the Italian artist Gaspare Traversi, created around 1758. The artwork depicts Saint Margaret of Cortona, a Franciscan penitent and mystic who lived in the 13th century and was canonized in 1728. Traversi, known for his genre scenes and character studies imbued with a sense of satire and psychological insight, approaches this religious subject with a unique blend of realism and emotional intensity.

The painting portrays Saint Margaret in a moment of divine ecstasy or penitence, a common theme in religious art of the period, reflecting the Baroque interest in dramatic expression and the inner spiritual life of saints. Traversi's treatment of light, shadow, and color, as well as his attention to detail, contribute to the evocative atmosphere of the scene, highlighting the saint's spiritual fervor and the depth of her devotion.

"Saint Margaret of Cortona" is a significant work within Traversi's oeuvre, as it exemplifies his skillful handling of religious themes within the context of the Counter-Reformation, which sought to inspire faith through art. The painting is an important example of Italian Baroque painting and contributes to our understanding of the era's artistic trends and the role of saints in Catholic iconography.
