No. 45, The Seven Virtues - Charity, 1306, is a fresco by the Italian painter Giotto di Bondone, a seminal figure in the pre-Renaissance period who is renowned for his contributions to the development of realistic pictorial space and the depiction of human emotions in art. This work is part of a series of frescoes depicting the seven virtues and seven vices, which Giotto painted in the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua, Italy. The series serves as a moral guide, illustrating the Christian ideals of virtuous living and the perils of sin.

The fresco of Charity, which represents one of the three theological virtues along with Faith and Hope, is a visual embodiment of selfless love and generosity. In this work, Giotto personifies Charity as a female figure, a common practice in medieval allegories, who is typically shown performing acts of kindness and giving to the needy. The depiction of Charity in Giotto's fresco would have been designed to inspire viewers to act virtuously and to reflect on the spiritual rewards of charitable actions.

Giotto's innovative use of chiaroscuro, a technique involving the contrast of light and shadow to give the illusion of depth, can be seen in this fresco, as well as his attention to human expression and gesture, which was groundbreaking at the time. The fresco is celebrated for its artistic excellence and its role in the transition from the Byzantine style of flat, symbolic representation to a more naturalistic approach that would come to define the Renaissance.

The Scrovegni Chapel frescoes, including The Seven Virtues - Charity, are considered masterpieces of Western art and are crucial for understanding the evolution of European painting. Giotto's work in the chapel is often cited as one of the first steps towards the Renaissance, and his influence can be seen in the works of later artists who further developed the techniques and styles he pioneered.
