Painting Description
"St. Anthony Tempted by Gold" is a 15th-century painting attributed to the Master of the Osservanza, a name given to an unidentified Italian painter active in the Siena region during the early Renaissance. The painting, dated around 1440, depicts a scene from the life of St. Anthony the Great, a Christian monk and saint venerated for his piety and austerity. In this artwork, St. Anthony is shown being tempted by gold, a test of his faith and resistance to material wealth.
The painting is executed in tempera on panel, a common medium and technique of the time, which involves the use of egg yolk mixed with pigment on a wooden panel. The Master of the Osservanza is known for his detailed and expressive figures, and this work is no exception. St. Anthony is portrayed with a contemplative expression, reflecting the inner turmoil and moral conflict of the temptation.
"St. Anthony Tempted by Gold" is considered an important work in the study of the Master of the Osservanza's oeuvre, illustrating the thematic focus on religious and moral narratives typical of the period. The painting not only showcases the artistic skills of the Master but also serves as a reflection of the religious and cultural values of 15th-century Siena.
