"St George" is a notable artwork by Simeon Solomon (1840–1905), a British Pre-Raphaelite painter known for his depictions of biblical, mythological, and literary subjects. Solomon, a prominent figure in the 19th-century art scene, was celebrated for his intricate detailing, rich color palette, and the emotional depth of his works. "St George" exemplifies Solomon's skill in blending spiritual and knightly themes, drawing upon the legend of Saint George, the patron saint of England, known for slaying a dragon and saving a princess.

The painting portrays St George in the moment of triumph, capturing both the physical action and the spiritual significance of the legend. Solomon's rendition is distinguished by its emphasis on the moral and symbolic aspects of the story, rather than merely the dramatic. The artist's use of color, light, and composition highlights the saint's courage and the purity of his mission, reflecting the Victorian fascination with chivalry and virtue.

As with many of Solomon's works, "St George" is imbued with layers of meaning, including themes of sacrifice, redemption, and the battle between good and evil. The painting also reflects Solomon's personal exploration of religious and mythological themes, set against the backdrop of his own complex identity as a gay Jewish artist in Victorian England.

Despite his initial acclaim, Solomon's career was marred by scandal and he was largely forgotten by the art establishment after his death. However, recent scholarship has revived interest in his work, recognizing him as a significant, if somewhat enigmatic, figure in the Pre-Raphaelite movement. "St George" remains an important piece in understanding Solomon's artistic legacy and the broader context of 19th-century British art.
