"Legend of St. Francis: Scenes Nos. 4-6" is a series of frescoes by the Italian artist Giotto di Bondone, painted between 1297 and 1299. These frescoes are part of a larger cycle that adorns the walls of the Upper Church of the Basilica of San Francesco d'Assisi in Assisi, Italy. The cycle depicts various episodes from the life of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of Italy and the founder of the Franciscan Order. Giotto's work on the frescoes marked a significant departure from the Byzantine style prevalent at the time, showcasing a more naturalistic approach to art that would come to define the early Renaissance.

Scenes Nos. 4-6 specifically illustrate key moments in the narrative of St. Francis's life. Scene No. 4, often titled "The Miracle of the Crucifix," shows the moment when St. Francis receives a message from a crucifix in the Church of San Damiano, urging him to repair the Christian Church. Scene No. 5, "The Renunciation of Worldly Goods," depicts St. Francis renouncing his father's wealth and earthly possessions to live a life of poverty in accordance with the Gospel. Finally, Scene No. 6, "The Dream of Pope Innocent III," portrays the Pope's dream in which he sees St. Francis supporting the crumbling Church, symbolizing the saint's role in the renewal of the Christian faith.

Giotto's frescoes are celebrated for their emotional depth and use of chiaroscuro, which brought a three-dimensional quality to the figures and scenes. The artist's ability to convey complex human emotions and interactions was groundbreaking for the time and contributed to the frescoes' reputation as masterpieces of early Renaissance art. The "Legend of St. Francis" cycle has been extensively studied for its artistic and historical significance, and it remains a key example of Giotto's innovative contributions to Western art.
