"St Veronica (detail)" is a fragment of a larger work attributed to the Early Netherlandish painter Robert Campin, also known as the Master of Flémalle. Campin, active during the early 15th century, is often regarded as one of the pioneers of the Northern Renaissance, contributing significantly to the development of oil painting and naturalistic representation in art.

The fragment depicts St. Veronica, a Christian saint who, according to tradition, offered her veil to Jesus to wipe his face on the way to his crucifixion. The image of Christ's face was miraculously imprinted on the cloth, which became known as the Veil of Veronica. This relic is a central element in Christian iconography, symbolizing compassion and piety.

In this detail, Campin's mastery of oil paint is evident in the meticulous rendering of textures and the lifelike portrayal of St. Veronica's features. The saint is often shown holding the veil, which bears the image of Christ's face, though in this fragment, the focus is on her visage and expression. The use of light and shadow, along with the delicate handling of color, exemplifies Campin's skill in creating depth and realism.

Campin's work is characterized by its attention to detail and the use of contemporary settings and attire, which helped to make religious scenes more relatable to viewers of his time. The "St Veronica (detail)" fragment is a testament to his ability to convey complex emotions and narratives through subtle visual cues.

While the exact provenance of this fragment is not well-documented, it is believed to have been part of a larger altarpiece or devotional panel. The fragmentary nature of the piece adds a layer of historical intrigue, inviting speculation about the original composition and its context within Campin's oeuvre.

"St Veronica (detail)" remains a significant example of Early Netherlandish painting, reflecting the transition from medieval to Renaissance art in Northern Europe. It highlights Robert Campin's role in this pivotal period of art history, showcasing his contributions to the techniques and thematic elements that would influence generations of artists to come.
