"St. George and the Dragon" is a renowned early 16th-century painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Raphael. Created circa 1504-1506, this masterpiece is celebrated for its depiction of the legendary tale of Saint George, a Christian martyr who is mythologized for slaying a dragon to save a princess. The painting is a prime example of Raphael's early work, showcasing his mastery in the use of color, composition, and his ability to convey narrative through art.

The artwork is executed in oil on wood and measures approximately 28.5 x 21.5 cm. It is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., United States. "St. George and the Dragon" illustrates the moment of triumph as Saint George, mounted on a white horse, drives his lance through the dragon at his feet, a scene that has captivated the imagination of artists for centuries. Raphael's rendition is particularly noted for its dynamic composition and the youthful vigor of its protagonist, reflecting the ideals of bravery and virtue.

Raphael, born Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino in 1483, was a leading figure of the Italian Renaissance, whose works are celebrated for their clarity of form and ease of composition. This painting, created during his early period after his move to Florence, reflects the influence of the Florentine artistic environment and his studies of the works of Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo. "St. George and the Dragon" stands as a testament to Raphael's burgeoning skill and his ability to imbue traditional themes with new life and vitality.

The painting has been subject to various interpretations over the years, with some scholars viewing it as a symbol of the Christian struggle against evil, while others see it as an allegory of the virtues of the ideal knight. Regardless of interpretation, "St. George and the Dragon" remains a significant work in Raphael's oeuvre and a masterpiece of Renaissance art, demonstrating the artist's precocious talent and his contribution to the development of Western art.
