"St. Benedict receiving hospitality, from the Life of St. Benedict, 1497-98" is a notable fresco created by the Italian Renaissance artists Luca Signorelli and Giovanni Antonio Bazzi, known as Sodoma. This artwork is part of a larger cycle of frescoes that depict the life and miracles of St. Benedict of Nursia, the founder of the Benedictine monastic order. The frescoes were commissioned for the Abbey of Monte Oliveto Maggiore, a prominent Benedictine monastery located in the Tuscany region of Italy.

The fresco captures a significant moment in the life of St. Benedict, illustrating the saint's reception of hospitality, a theme that underscores the Benedictine values of community and charity. The scene is rendered with meticulous attention to detail, characteristic of Signorelli's and Sodoma's styles, which blend the robust, dynamic figures of the former with the more delicate and expressive figures of the latter. The composition is marked by a harmonious balance between the architectural elements and the human figures, creating a sense of depth and realism.

Signorelli and Sodoma's collaboration on this fresco cycle is a testament to the rich artistic culture of the Italian Renaissance, where master artists often worked together to produce monumental works. The frescoes at Monte Oliveto Maggiore are celebrated for their vivid storytelling and the emotional depth conveyed through the figures' expressions and gestures. This particular fresco, "St. Benedict receiving hospitality," exemplifies the artists' ability to convey complex narratives and spiritual themes through their art.

The frescoes have been preserved and continue to be a significant attraction for art historians and visitors alike, offering a glimpse into the religious and artistic fervor of the late 15th century. The work of Signorelli and Sodoma at Monte Oliveto Maggiore remains an important chapter in the history of Renaissance art, reflecting the era's devotion to religious subjects and the innovative artistic techniques that defined the period.
