Gentile da Fabriano, an eminent painter of the International Gothic style, is celebrated for his intricate and richly detailed works. One of his notable creations is the "Polyptych Quaratesi," which includes the panels depicting Mary Magdalene and Saint Nicholas of Bari. This polyptych, completed in 1425, was commissioned by the Quaratesi family for the church of San Niccolò Oltrarno in Florence. The work exemplifies Gentile's mastery in combining delicate, flowing lines with a vibrant color palette, characteristic of the International Gothic style.

The "Polyptych Quaratesi" originally consisted of multiple panels, each illustrating different saints and religious figures, arranged in a structured, multi-paneled altarpiece. The panels of Mary Magdalene and Saint Nicholas of Bari are particularly noteworthy for their exquisite detail and the emotional depth conveyed through the figures' expressions and gestures. Mary Magdalene is often depicted with her traditional attributes, such as the ointment jar, symbolizing her role in anointing Christ. Saint Nicholas of Bari, known for his acts of charity and miracles, is typically portrayed in episcopal vestments, holding a crozier and sometimes accompanied by the three golden balls or children, referencing his legendary acts of generosity.

Gentile's use of gold leaf and intricate patterns enhances the divine and ethereal quality of the figures, creating a sense of otherworldly presence. The meticulous attention to detail in the garments, the delicate rendering of facial features, and the harmonious composition reflect Gentile's exceptional skill and his ability to convey both the physical and spiritual dimensions of his subjects.

The "Polyptych Quaratesi" stands as a testament to Gentile da Fabriano's artistic prowess and his significant contribution to the development of early Renaissance art. Although the original polyptych has been disassembled, with panels now housed in various museums, the surviving pieces continue to be admired for their beauty and historical significance.
