"Christ the Redeemer and Four Saints" (1271) is a notable work of art by the Italian painter Meliore di Jacopo, also known simply as Meliore. This piece is a tempera and gold leaf on wood painting, characteristic of the Italian Gothic style that prevailed during the late 13th century. The artwork is significant for its religious iconography and its representation of the period's aesthetic values and technical approaches to sacred art.

The painting depicts Christ the Redeemer in the center, flanked by four saints who are commonly believed to be St. John the Baptist, St. Peter, St. Paul, and possibly St. Zenobius, each identified by their traditional iconographic attributes. Christ is portrayed in a frontal, hieratic pose, blessing with one hand while holding the globus cruciger in the other, symbolizing His dominion over the world. The saints stand in a row, each within their own compartmentalized space, yet unified by the continuous gold-leafed background that was typical of the era's devotional panel paintings.

Meliore di Jacopo was an artist active in Florence, and his work is an example of the transition from Byzantine to more naturalistic styles that would eventually lead to the Renaissance. "Christ the Redeemer and Four Saints" is particularly noted for its linear precision, the delicate use of color, and the intricate patterns of the halos and borders, which reflect the influence of Byzantine art while also showcasing the emerging Florentine attention to detail and realism.

This painting is an important piece for understanding the progression of Italian art and provides insight into the religious and cultural context of 13th-century Florence. It is a testament to the skill of Meliore di Jacopo and serves as a valuable artifact for both art historians and those interested in the devotional practices of the time. The work is housed in a collection that allows for public viewing, offering an opportunity to appreciate the craftsmanship and devotional spirit of the medieval period.
