"Santa Caterina d'Alessandria" is a Renaissance painting by the Italian artist Marcello Venusti. This artwork, which dates back to the 16th century, depicts Saint Catherine of Alexandria, a Christian saint and martyr who was revered for her intellect, faith, and defiance of the Roman emperor Maxentius. Venusti, known for his close association with Michelangelo, often reflected the master's influence in his own work, both in terms of composition and the rendering of figures.

The painting showcases Saint Catherine in a traditional iconographic pose, with the martyr's wheel and a sword, the instruments of her torture and subsequent execution. Venusti's portrayal is noted for its delicate execution and attention to detail, which is characteristic of his style. The saint is typically shown with an expression of serene acceptance of her fate, highlighting her sanctity and steadfastness in faith.

"Santa Caterina d'Alessandria" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical and cultural context. The painting reflects the religious fervor of the period and the veneration of saints in Christian art. It also offers insight into the Mannerist style that was prevalent during Venusti's time, which is often characterized by elongated proportions and a heightened elegance.

While the exact location and provenance of the painting might not be well-documented, works such as "Santa Caterina d'Alessandria" contribute to the understanding of the diffusion of Michelangelo's influence through the works of his contemporaries and followers. Venusti's painting remains an important piece for the study of Renaissance art and the representation of saints in religious iconography.
