"St. George and the Dragon" is a celebrated Renaissance painting by the Italian artist Paolo Uccello, dated around 1456. This work is renowned for its vivid depiction of the legendary tale of Saint George, the Christian knight, slaying a dragon to rescue a princess. The painting is a prime example of Uccello's fascination with perspective and his attempt to incorporate the developing techniques of the time into his art.

The painting showcases Uccello's mastery in the use of perspective, a relatively new concept in art during the early Renaissance. It features a dramatic composition with the knight mounted on a white horse, in the act of spearing the dragon, while the princess can be seen in the background. The use of foreshortening and the careful arrangement of figures in space demonstrate Uccello's skill and his interest in the mathematical aspects of painting.

"St. George and the Dragon" is executed in tempera on wood and is noted for its vibrant color palette, which contributes to the dynamic quality of the scene. The landscape in the painting features a rocky terrain and a distant city, which adds to the narrative and provides a sense of depth. The intricate details, such as the scales of the dragon and the armor of Saint George, reflect Uccello's attention to texture and form.

This work is one of several depictions of the Saint George legend by Uccello, and it is often compared to his other treatments of the subject to understand the evolution of his artistic style. The painting is not only significant for its artistic merits but also for its cultural and historical value, as it reflects the themes of chivalry and virtue that were prevalent in the 15th century.

"St. George and the Dragon" by Paolo Uccello is housed in the Musée Jacquemart-André in Paris, France, where it continues to be an object of study and admiration for its pioneering use of perspective and its place in the narrative of Renaissance art.
