St. Michael Defeating the Dragon above Mont St. Michael" is a significant medieval artwork painted by Pol de Limbourg, a renowned Franco-Netherlandish miniaturist from the Limbourg brothers. The piece portrays the archangel Michael, a common figure in Christian lore, battling a dragon - a symbol often representative of Satan or evil. Executed in vibrant and meticulous detail, it showcases the prominent gothic art characteristics of the early 15th century.

In the painting, the scene unfolds above Mont St. Michael, an island commune in Normandy, France, historically famous as a strategic fort and as a place of pilgrimage. This location's inclusion significantly augments the painting's religious undertones, as Mont St. Michael is frequently associated with St. Michael.

Pol de Limbourg's attention to minutia is evident in the intricate details of the piece, from the armored St. Michael wielding a spear, to the scenery beneath the action which features the spires of the monastery elegantly reaching towards the heavens. The dragon, while menacing, appears almost dwarfed by the grandeur of the saint and his divine mission.

This work, while not as widely recognized as the Limbourg brothers' opus, "Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry," is nevertheless an excellent exemplification of the detailed and symbolic artistry that defines the brothers' oeuvre and the period's art.

Given its medieval context, historical and symbolic details, and artistic reprosentation of a widely venerated figure, "St. Michael Defeating the Dragon above Mont St. Michael" is a vital composition in the study of Pol de Limbourg's work and the broader exploration of Franco-Netherlandish art.
