Saint Andrew is a notable painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Giovanni Antonio de' Sacchis, commonly known as Pordenone. This work exemplifies Pordenone's mastery in combining dramatic expression with intricate detail, hallmarks of the High Renaissance period. Pordenone, who was active during the early 16th century, is renowned for his dynamic compositions and robust figures, which often convey a sense of movement and emotional intensity.

The painting depicts Saint Andrew, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus Christ, who is traditionally recognized as the patron saint of fishermen and Scotland. In this artwork, Saint Andrew is portrayed with his characteristic attribute, the diagonal cross (also known as a saltire), upon which he was martyred. The saint's visage is rendered with a profound sense of piety and solemnity, reflecting his dedication and sacrifice.

Pordenone's use of chiaroscuro, the contrast between light and dark, is particularly effective in this painting, adding depth and volume to Saint Andrew's figure. The artist's skillful application of light highlights the saint's serene expression and the intricate folds of his garments, creating a lifelike and three-dimensional appearance. The background, though less detailed, provides a complementary setting that enhances the overall composition without detracting from the central figure.

The painting is a testament to Pordenone's ability to convey religious themes with both reverence and artistic innovation. His works, including Saint Andrew, are celebrated for their vigorous style and emotional resonance, which distinguish them from those of his contemporaries. This piece not only reflects the spiritual fervor of the period but also Pordenone's unique contribution to Renaissance art, making it a significant work for both art historians and enthusiasts alike.
