"Portrait of St Thomas Aquinas" is a notable Renaissance painting attributed to the collaborative efforts of the Flemish artist Pedro Berruguete and the Italian painter Justus van Gent, also known as Joos van Wassenhove. This artwork is believed to have been created around the 1470s and is a part of a series of illustrious men, which includes philosophers, poets, and theologians, originally intended for the studiolo of Federico da Montefeltro, the Duke of Urbino.

The painting depicts St. Thomas Aquinas, a Dominican friar and an immensely influential philosopher and theologian of the late medieval period, whose works have had a lasting impact on Christian theology and Western philosophy. In the portrait, Aquinas is typically shown in the attire of a Dominican monk, with a book in hand or nearby, symbolizing his scholarly contributions, particularly to the field of scholasticism.

The collaboration between Berruguete, a Spanish painter who is considered one of the pioneers of the Spanish Renaissance, and Justus van Gent, a Flemish painter known for his Italianate style, resulted in a fusion of Northern European and Italian artistic elements. This is evident in the meticulous attention to detail and the use of perspective and volume, which were characteristic of the Renaissance period.

The "Portrait of St Thomas Aquinas" is not only significant for its artistic merit but also for its historical and cultural value, as it reflects the intellectual spirit of the Renaissance, an era that revered the thinkers of the past while advancing new ideas in philosophy, art, and science. The painting is currently housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, where it continues to be studied and admired for its craftsmanship and its representation of one of the most important figures in the history of Christian thought.
