The "Polyptych Quaratesi: St John the Baptist and St George" is a notable work by the Italian painter Gentile da Fabriano, a master of the International Gothic style. Created in 1425, this polyptych was commissioned by the Quaratesi family, a prominent Florentine family, for the church of San Niccolò Oltrarno in Florence. Gentile da Fabriano, renowned for his exquisite detail and vibrant use of color, was one of the leading artists of his time, and this work is a testament to his skill and artistic vision.

The polyptych originally consisted of multiple panels, with the central panel depicting the Madonna and Child, flanked by various saints. Among these, the panels of St John the Baptist and St George are particularly significant. St John the Baptist, a key figure in Christian iconography, is depicted with his traditional attributes, including the lamb and the cross, symbolizing his role as the forerunner of Christ. St George, the legendary dragon-slaying saint, is portrayed in his characteristic armor, embodying the virtues of chivalry and courage.

Gentile's work on this polyptych is characterized by its delicate attention to detail, rich textures, and the use of gold leaf, which adds a luminous quality to the figures. The intricate patterns and the graceful, elongated forms of the saints reflect the influence of the International Gothic style, which emphasized elegance and decorative beauty.

The "Polyptych Quaratesi" has undergone various restorations over the centuries, and its panels are now dispersed among different museums. The panels of St John the Baptist and St George are currently housed in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, where they continue to be admired for their artistic and historical significance. This work not only exemplifies Gentile da Fabriano's mastery but also provides insight into the religious and cultural milieu of early 15th-century Florence.
