"St. John on Patmos" (1490-92) is a renowned painting by the Italian Renaissance master Sandro Botticelli. This artwork is part of a series that depicts scenes from the life of St. John the Evangelist, and it is believed to have been commissioned for the Florentine church of Santa Maria Maddalena de' Pazzi. The painting is executed in tempera on panel and measures approximately 21 inches by 15 inches.

The composition of "St. John on Patmos" illustrates the saint in a moment of divine inspiration or revelation, as he is traditionally identified as the author of the Book of Revelation. St. John is depicted in isolation on the island of Patmos, where he was exiled by the Roman Emperor Domitian. The landscape is barren and rocky, emphasizing the harshness of his exile and the spiritual intensity of his vision. The saint is shown gazing upwards, presumably towards a vision of the Apocalypse, which he is in the process of transcribing into the biblical text.

Botticelli's work is characterized by its linear grace and the clarity of its composition, which are typical of the early Renaissance style. The figure of St. John is rendered with delicate features and flowing drapery, which convey a sense of movement and ethereal beauty. The use of color and light in the painting highlights the spiritual theme, with the saint bathed in a soft, divine light that contrasts with the dark, rocky landscape.

"St. John on Patmos" is notable for its devotional subject matter and its place within the broader context of Botticelli's religious works. The painting reflects the artist's interest in the mystical and visionary aspects of Christianity, themes that he explored throughout his career. Today, the painting is held in the collection of the National Gallery in London, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
