"Fortitude" (1435) is a celebrated fresco by the Italian Renaissance painter Paolo Uccello, renowned for his pioneering work on perspective in art. This artwork is part of a series of seven virtues that were originally commissioned for the tribunal hall of the Mercanzia in Florence, Italy, a place where mercantile disputes were settled. Uccello's "Fortitude" is the only surviving piece from this series, making it a precious window into the artistic and cultural practices of 15th-century Florence.

The fresco depicts the allegorical figure of Fortitude, personifying strength and courage, a common theme in Renaissance art, reflecting the period's humanist ideals. Uccello's depiction is notable for its dynamic use of perspective and meticulous attention to the details of the figure's armor and throne, which demonstrate the artist's fascination with geometric shapes and the challenge of representing three-dimensional space on a two-dimensional surface. This work is an early example of the use of perspective, a technique that would come to define the Renaissance artistic movement.

"Fortitude" measures 170 cm x 73 cm and is currently housed in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, having been moved there in the 18th century. Its original location in the Mercanzia hall and its singular survival from the original series contribute to its historical and artistic significance. The fresco's transfer to the Uffizi allowed for its preservation and study, offering insights into Uccello's artistic evolution and the broader trends of Renaissance art.

Through "Fortitude," Paolo Uccello presents a harmonious blend of strength and grace, encapsulating the Renaissance ideals of beauty, balance, and human virtue. The work remains a testament to Uccello's mastery of form and perspective, as well as his contribution to the development of Renaissance art.
