The ''Quaratesi Altarpiece: St. Nicholas and Three Poor Maidens'' is a notable work of art created in 1425 by the Italian painter Gentile da Fabriano. This piece is part of a larger polyptych commissioned by the wealthy Florentine banker Palla Strozzi for the family's chapel in the church of San Niccolò Oltrarno in Florence. The altarpiece is celebrated for its display of Gentile da Fabriano's mastery of International Gothic style, characterized by its elegant figures, rich ornamentation, and the use of gold leaf, which creates a sumptuous and decorative effect.

The panel depicts a popular legend of Saint Nicholas, the patron saint of the chapel for which the altarpiece was made. According to the story, Saint Nicholas, known for his generosity and secret gift-giving, saves three impoverished sisters from a life of destitution or forced prostitution by providing them with dowries. The narrative is captured in the painting as Saint Nicholas, under the cloak of night, discreetly throws three bags of gold through the window of the sisters' home.

Gentile da Fabriano's work on this panel is distinguished by its intricate detail, use of perspective, and the harmonious blending of colors. The artist's attention to the textures of fabrics and surfaces, as well as the delicate rendering of the figures' expressions, contributes to the overall grace and refinement of the painting. The ''Quaratesi Altarpiece: St. Nicholas and Three Poor Maidens'' is not only a significant example of Gentile da Fabriano's artistry but also an important piece of early Renaissance art that reflects the devotional and aesthetic values of its time.

Today, the ''Quaratesi Altarpiece'' is fragmented, with its panels dispersed across various art museums around the world. The ''St. Nicholas and Three Poor Maidens'' panel is held in a prominent collection, where it continues to be studied and admired for its historical and artistic significance.
