"Baptism of St. Zenobius and His Appointment as Bishop" is a painting by the Italian Renaissance master Sandro Botticelli, created between 1500 and 1505. This artwork is part of a series of four panels depicting the life of St. Zenobius, a Florentine saint and the city's first bishop, which were originally intended for the Zenobi Chapel in the Church of San Pier Maggiore in Florence. The panels are now dispersed across various art institutions.

The painting captures two significant events in the life of St. Zenobius. On the left, the scene illustrates the baptism of Zenobius, which is considered the moment of his spiritual rebirth and initiation into the Christian faith. On the right, the artwork depicts his consecration as the Bishop of Florence, marking his rise to ecclesiastical prominence and his commitment to serving the Church and the people of Florence.

Botticelli's work is renowned for its delicate linear style, graceful figures, and the use of vivid colors that were characteristic of the Florentine school during the late 15th century. In this painting, Botticelli employs a narrative technique that allows the viewer to read the story across the continuous landscape, a method that was innovative for its time and contributed to the development of Renaissance art.

The "Baptism of St. Zenobius and His Appointment as Bishop" is a testament to Botticelli's mastery of religious subjects and his ability to infuse them with a sense of piety and elegance. The painting not only reflects the religious fervor of the period but also offers insight into the cultural and artistic milieu of Florence at the dawn of the 16th century.

Today, the painting is recognized as an important work in Botticelli's oeuvre and is studied for its artistic and historical significance. It continues to be admired for its beauty and its representation of a key figure in Florentine history and religious tradition.
